Finally, I completed the installation of the KONI strut on both front and rear.

However, during the the process of rear strut install, I tried to disconnect the ball joint but I squeezed the left rear lower arm ball joint rubber cover until the grease is coming out and the rubber boot is not properly in place (see
PICTURE.
I am trying to figure out how to repack the rubber boot cover for this ball joint and whether I need to replace the entire ball joint.

I do not have the Honda special tool for ball joint removal. That is why I used the "fork" to push it out but the result was squeezed rubber boot cover and grease leakage.

Thoughts? Ideas on how to repack the rubber boot cover?

 

There is a way to repack the ball joint boot with grease. However, you need another special tool - "Ball joint boot clip guide", Part #07GAG-Sd40700. Then you must follow a set procedure as outlined in the Helm manual. Without this tool, you may as well buy a new ball joint and do a wheel alignment. Actually, you should do a wheel alignment anyway.
You did not need the special "Honda" tool to separate the ball joint but you'll need the other special tool now to repack the boot. You could have used a generic ball joint separator like this:


By now, it may be just cheaper to take it to the dealer and have them repack it for you.

 

Thanks Xviper.

I am planning to take it to dealer for alignment and will ask them for quote to repack it.
Where do you get this tool and how much is it?
I want to consider doing it myself eventhough the tool may cost me a little bit.
I "feel" better that I do it myself.

Thanks.

 

The part number I quoted is a Honda part. I have no idea how much it costs.
That pic I posted up is a generic puller. It costs about 10 bucks.

 

I have successfully swapped boots & clip trackside (during a knuckle swap) with nothing more than a couple of small screwdrivers. The "clip" is basically a flat wire that makes 2 complete revolutions around the base of the boot. Just about any synthetic grease is fine. If you put in too much it will just spooge out.
