Default Question about grease..

Quick question, it seems every time I grease control arms, tie rod, ect that more than anything it attracts grit and dirt to all the components that are greased. Sticks to the stuff like fly paper. Is this okay for the components?

I would say as long as the dirt it sticking to the grease that has come out it's ok. Wipe down any extra grease and make sure you grease often in your in water a lot. Don't power wash greased areas as you can just push water in that might not come out

If it bothers you, just get a rag and put some diesel on it and clean them off. Dirt old grease comes right off and it won't affect your bushings or anything
