I do not know why you would be concerned about your topic, it is way closer to technical discussion then posting what you had for breakfast or what a weather map is saying. Those things have been posted on TRACTOR Talk, all be it they may have been by mistake. I agree with blackhole, if this thing is under 15-20 years old and saw grease twice a year hard grease is not your problem. You say ball joints and tie rod ends what manufacturer made the chassis? Both ball joint and king pin style front suspensions will benefit from being greased with the weight of the vehicle off of them. Most ball joint suspensions use a coil spring or torsion bar to support the vehicle by way of the lower A arm or control arm. These need lifted under the outer end of the control arm closest to the tire to take the pressure off of the ball joints for the most ideal scenario to get grease in between the wear surfaces where it normally would not flow easily if the joint is under tension. If you do not understand what I mean about the ball joint loading post back and I can go into more detail. Maybe all that really needs said is that type of suspension when it is jacked up under the frame and the control arms ..usually the top.. hits it stop. The ball joint is still holding the pressure of the coil spring keeping it from flying out.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
