Re: All about: 2CV suspension subarupete wrote: Have done this to the tie rod ends after having some well polished ones. Need a carbide drill as its case hardened steel, can now easily grease and it keeps the dirt out As for springs, a previous post suggested Veg Oil. i like the look of that, might give it a shot with my old tie rod ends after chaning suspsion, got some old grease nipples lieing around, as you do
