When I had my shocks replaced, the invoice told me my Grease seals were worn, I didn't have the money to do it. What are they and where are they? It said they were 6.99 so I know I can fix it myself. Thanks.
 






Maybe they meant the "grease fittings" that are around your tie rod ends and so forth. They are fittings that thread into a component (like a tie rod end) and let you put lube grease in there easily. Sometimes they have a rubber seal that fits around them, maybe that's what they meant..."Grease Seal"..hmm not sure about that terminology.

there are grease seals on the wheel bearings,but why they
would notice this while changing shocks i dont know unless
they did an overall inspection on the front end.
