As long as you don't move the adjustment collar you should be fine.

The adjustment collar is on the yoke not the ball joint

The top ball joint floats up and down, the bottom sits in the adjuster so dont touch the adjuster and use lemforda (or ever its spelt) the are oem.

@EntropyUK did his recently. There's a video on YouTube where a guy makes his own alignment tool out of some plastic pipe or somesuch. I think entropy uk might have done something similar.
