    Is this true? He also says all aftermarket UCAS leak grease. I say that’s BS and that he should call JBA

    Yes its normal, as your suspension moves up and down under load a small amount of grease will be pushed out, and when you grease your UCA's it will push out the old dirty grease as the clean grease from your grease gun replaces it. The reason being the bushings and ball joint cups are not sealed units like cv boots.
