I'm going back to the stock type bushings on the springs, sway bars and struts...

Has anyone use grease on any of these to cut down on squeaks or do they work fine
dry??

I'm weird in that I always use some grease but I dont feel it's necessary with stock bushings.

Because stock bushings do deteriorate when in contact with oil and fluids, and grease generally has PD's in it, I suppose one could argue that the grease could break down the bushing.

Honestly, I feel that a lot of other stuff will wear the bushing out first so I still use a thin smear of grease on contact areas.

The White Lithium type seems pretty benign... I'll probably just use a bit of that.

Thanks!!
