Tie rod endstake grease, but the ball joints on the front control arms DON'T get greased. They are teflon on the inside and sealed for life... they are supposed to last like 250,000 miles before needing replaced. Do not try to grease them.

Replacment ball joints will probably have the grease point. Like adder said, just get a grease gun and get under the car and put some grease in them. You don't need to jack the car up.
