One recall is all you get. Just because they are making noise doesn’t mean they are falling apart. Have them inspected to be sure. Perhaps a grease fitting can be drilled in somewhere to get some grease on them.

Find out for sure if it’s a ball joint first.

If it is, find out if there are any TSBs that postdate the recall notice. You may luck out.

Zerk fittings can be added, as Uncle T suggested, but should not be needed.
