I just replaced the stabilizer links in my 2007 Mazda 3 yesterday with Mevotech and they have zerk fittings. I added grease till I could feel some in the boot with my fingers as I had my finders on the boot as I was filling them up. I see many posts about this but don't know which is right, should you grease just until you feel grease inside the boot and that's it or should you keep going till it comes out of the boot?
 
What I have to say is you did fine . I would shoot a little more grease into it , until the rubber boor starts to " balloon " out a tad .

Just grease the suspension every time you change oil / filter .
 
If grease is covering all the components in the joint im not sure what having more grease in there would accomplish besides maybe the ability to hold extra contaminants in suspension. I generally like to squeeze all the old grease out of the joint until i see new grease when i am greasing an old joint.
