Default Poly Strut Rod Bushing Grease

Is White Lithium Grease a good application for PolyUrethane Strut Rod Bushings?

Grease is grease to an extent. White lithium will work, but I think silicone grease might be a better choice

I'd use silicone grease.
I used white lithium on some trailing arm bushings before and it dried up within a few months.

I used Formula 5 from Energy Suspension. I don't think it will ever come off. Wear gloves if you use it. It's some sticky stuff.
