Re: grease for bushings (Red 86 4+3)
I always grease 'em up. I use Mobil 1 synthetic grease or a VERY nasty super-waterproof marine grease I got to do my poly bushing kit. Very few moving parts get upset when lubricated.

Re: grease for bushings (BobMachus)
Bob,
Thanks for your reply. I just didnt know if it was ok to grease the rubber bushings, such as the sway bar bushings etc, where the rubber actually touches the metal. I was concerned that it would deterioate the rubber. But I dont want squeaks neither. I knew the grease was recomnended for the poly bushings, again just wasnt for sure on the rubber. But tonight its going to get greased!!
