I just replaced my steering box and pittman arm. The steering wheel is a little crooked, so I am going to have it aligned on Monday. Since I have a front end kit I got from ESPO a while back, but haven't used yet, I figured I would replace all the tie rods and sleeves before it goes in for alignment.

My question, do you grease the inside of the sleeves? On one hand, it seems like this would good to minimize corrosion over the long run, but maybe it will make the adjustment prone to shake out of adjustment in driving? (Obviously I will grease the zerks on the tie rod ends)
