I dropped my suspension parts off yesterday to get media blasted. When I took the strut inserts out, the houses were full of grease.

The blaster is going to pack some rags in there to keep the media out, but he said he would also degrease them as that would trap the media obviously.

Question is, is degreasing them going to harm anything? (wouldn't think so) And, should I just pack some grease back in there when I get them back? I wasn't aware they had grease in them normally.

I find the whole strut design sort of odd. Hard to imagine the little pin catching a bit of groove on the insert is enough for everything to work. Oh well, I'm sure the engineers were/are a lot smarter than I.

Cheers,
