[DML] Did something dumb.... (aka Greased the wrong thing)

["Mike" <Michael.Fischer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, I must not have had enough coffee before I started working on 
my D this weekend.
 
I was doing the spring-time chassis lube;  (after being reminded by 
a couple of posts here)

So I happily lubed all the grease-nipples, the angle drive, and 
silicon sprayed the bushing etc.

Well, then I got out the needle injector for the grease gun, to lube 
the tie rod ends.  But I don't know what the heck I was thinking, 
instead of getting the needle into the tie rod end boot, I  slipped 
in into the "accordian bellows style" boot at the end of the 
steering rack, and gave it a little shot of grease.

Did I make huge boo-boo?  (i.e. messed up my rack) or is this a no-
biggie?  Any ideas?  (I haven't moved the steering position since I 
did this.)

And how embarassing to have to post this... but I'd rather be 
embarassed then ruin the rack.
