What grease does everyone use for their LCA's.

I have heard of people using several different kinds for Polyurethane Bushings from Synthetic, Lithuim, Marine, Energy Suspensions Pre Lube, Green Grease and others. Here is the link to Green grease.

I use the Energy Suspension pre lube. Seems to work, I've never heard any squeaks.

I used ENS's greasable bushings for my Vic's sway bars, but I tried greasing them the other day and nothing would go in. It's probably jammed up from all the rust.

I got the NFO Tech. grease from BMR. If you use the wrong stuff you will have more problems than just squeeks.I have Moto Blue Billet lcas with poly bushings but bought the grease from BMR because they sell alot of parts with poly bushings and want to keep a good reputation so it must be good.

I just purchased a set also, how do you like them. Here is a good deal on them, the same place I got them from.

Energy Suspension Formula 5 prelube.

On other LCA installs that I've helped on, we used Mobil 1 synthetic grease.

Prothane's lube. You can buy it for like 5.99 at Kragen.com. Works like a charm, and far different from any other 'normal' grease.

I can't get any of that fancy grease over here, so I just use Slick 50. Been using it for over two years, re-greasing once per year and have not had any problems. All the bushings are still intact and zero noise.

The only kind I can find around here so far is the Valvoline syntheic. But I would like to use the prothane or Energy Suspensions.

BY the way, in addition to a very sweet ride you've got, that's beautiful country in your photos. Where is this? Back east? I live in a concrete jungle (southern California) where the wild life is two-toned - black and white.
