My ironman shocks are squeaking, so I drilled a hole in the cover to grease them, as Oom Andy suggested,
now looking at covering the holes with the shock boots

Why don't you put grommits in the holes? Places like Wurth should have.

Ismail.
Greasing the boots not a good idea the holes are there to let water out if you go through water.Grease will attract the dirt and it will make a grinding paste and will bugger up the seals on those shocks and they will then leak etc.

Darrell
