Install grease fittings in upper and lower control arms.

Install grease fittings in upper and lower control arms.
Has anyone tried to install grease fittings in the upper and lower control arms? I saw a Tech article where a guy did that. I would like to give mine a wee little squirt now and then. I was thinking to enter through the steel flange and with a magnetized drill bit and hold a magnet next to it to reduce the amount of filing from getting into the joint. I live in Florida and the grease just liquifies here in the summer. Any thoughts would be appreciated, Thanks.

If you do it, make a write up as I am interested in this as well.

Oh don't worry, I'm in NO hurry to ever look, touch or even think about those f'ing control arms.
