    as long as the ball joint is still good you can put a grease fitting in the ball joint if there is a place for a fitting ! a lot of the newer cars don,t have grease fittings !

    Grease fittings on ball joints are very, very rare these days. I recommend calling the shop that replaced the ball joint and see what they have to say. I bet the ball joint is sealed.

    Yes, the fittings just screw in.
