Maintenance free ball joints

[tmsmini]

Anyone have an update on these after running them for awhile?
I put a set on a car over a year ago. The car maybe has a thousand miles since and there appears to be slight movement, very slight. Do you retorque these? I am having my doubts about them, if I can feel movement after 1000 miles. These are the Delta brand.

I've got a set to install on my car, but no road experience with them yet.....you might give them a shot of grease and see if that takes that slight movement out? I agree, as expensive as they are I'd be disappointed if they've worn in only 1000 miles.

Who sells the Delta brand?

I'd try to torque them and if they're sloppy, as in clunky up and down, I'd toss them in the trash. Are these firm to move when new?  Leather glove and hard to move with the palm of your hand firm?

Delta is sold by David Ainley and others. He sells as Classic Minis Japan.
They were firm on initial installation and now when off the car and greased, they seem Ok. Before they were removed when we had the car on a lift you could slightly feel movement and see the rubber cover bulge with a strong two-handed upward push.

I have a set on hand that I bought from Steveston in Canada, haven't installed them yet....
