Default Poly shock bushing, lube em or no?
Rebuilding the front end and got some poly shock bushings, do they need lube like the other bushings or can they be installed dry?

I have installed them either way with no noise or problems. If you want to be safe, lube 'em up. It won't hurt anything.

Figured I would put em in dry since they are easy to get out to lube but wanted to get opinions from those in the know.
