hi guys another querie as I'm goign through everything on the corsair, it has had all new track rod ends put on it about 4-5 years ago and number 1 they are obviously stiff what spray grease could i use to lubricate and also grease them up as i thought using normal grease wont get 'into' the whole ball bit unseen to us..if that makes sense?!? what is the best spray grease to use then on the track rod ends and stuff like that? many thanks in advance

I'd just pack the rubber boot with a little normal grease as movement should then lubricate the "unseen" aspect over time. Some TRE's, such as the Minor, had a grease nipple or a blanking plug. Is there anything like that on the Corsair items ?

as above, just use normal grease.
spray grease isn't intended for high load items like balljoints, I doubt the aerosol can generate enough pressure to inject the grease if the3y are equipped with a grease nipple.
don't forget that most balljoints if sealed will be extremely stiff if they are unused.
