Lubricating ball joints

I installed new moog ball joints which have a port for grease to come out when full. I pumped it up pretty good but don't see any grease coming out of the port. I can't really see the port either, I think it's in the folds of the rubber cover. I sure don't want to screw anything up. Any advice?

Keep pumping til u see the rubber start to expand. Usuallly keep going till some pushes out around the end of the boot. You would be surprised how much greare a dry balljoint will hold.
