[T3] Ball Joints

[JaransonT3@aol.com]

After putting my 66 Square up on jackstands and removing the wheels (to 
restore and paint them), I noticed some grease oozing from the right tierod 
end.  Looks like the boot is popped off.  Closer inspection showed 3 out of 4 
ball joint boots also popped off and oozing grease.  It does not look like 
they have been off long or while I was still drivng the car.  It almost looks 
like they just came off when I unloaded the suspension by jacking it up.

So, can I put the boots back on or do I need new ball joints?  Will the ball 
joint from my 71 Fasty (since it is years from being back on the road and I 
have another front end for her anyway) fit the 66 Square?  Are new ones 
available?

Thanks,
John Jaranson
