Use a bentonite clay based grease when you put them back together.Thanks Richard , I'm glad to hear that they should be serviceable the Joker at the shop didn't think they were! I'm quite supprIsed that an 87 even has automatic slack adjusters !

The reason for the clay base is to withstand the high temps that the adjuster might see.
