Your probably right, I didn't see the part about it being hard only 1 way.

To service my balljoints, I pop them using the correct tool (to preserve the
boot) and use a grease gun with a needle between the stud and the boot to
inject grease in them. You are correct though, they are not designed to be
serviced.

Just wondering if you had a premature failure on one of your new balljoints...
.. I had that happen on my 98 civic.
