I'm installing new teraflex lower control arms today and was wondering

1.) Do they come creased up from factory or should I crease them?
2.) How often should they be creased?
3.) What crease to use. make?

thanks

 

I've read that they come greased from the factory. Rule of thumb is to grease every oil change, but if you've been fording water you might want to grease them a little earlier (but you might be doing a diffy lube change anyway!). Type of grease? Something name-brand from the auto store.

 

1. Yes the arms are greased
2. Every 3500 miles/oil change
3. I'm using a high temp synthetic grease in mine.

 

If they are creased I would send them back
