So i bought a new idler arm for my 95 SR, it has a zerk fitting in the upper 'bushing' portion but none around the ball joint and there doesnt appear to be any grease in the ball joint.

Can I just carefully drill through the back of ball joint and add a zerk fitting there? or should i go through the side like on the pitman arm?
