Suspension grease

[A//// Guy]

All grease will eventually wear away. Can you install different bushings? Are the ones you are using poly or OEM?

Stock ones, black rubbery poly stuff. I guess I would just like to make it one maintenance cycle per year.

Thats weird they squeek.. never had a problem with stock or poly bushings. Maybe order some poly ones?

Astroglide.
astroglide is water based you gotta get some serious lube thats oil based like "gun oil." astroglide will break down in the heat of the moment. poly bushing are noisy. ive also heard so much noise out of a bushing. if you could get the hold downs that have a grease zerk in them thats the way to do it. otherwise you gotta live with it or go to town with grease. energry suspension makes a grease that comes with the new parts or you can buy it. the part number is 9.11104 for a 8 oz tub or 9.11110 for the 3 of 1/2 oz squirt tubes. I ran this stuff on my poly bushings and IT REALLY WORKS..

LOL @ astroglide response, nice work lucasoil4u.....yeow!

Red, I have some of this magic red grease in a grease gun at my house, I don't know what it is, maybe mobil1 synthetic, idk. I got it from a friend who did a swaybar install at my house and left it for me. Some day I'll crack the can open to see what it is so I can fill it up again, but for now, I have never had anything creek that I have put it on. You're welcome to a pump or three out of it, no problemo!

I have a jar of marine grease (the blue/green stuff) too, if you want that.

You could buy some replacement bushings:

They'll also include a grease packet.

Thanks for the input guys. I had the nice poly ones on my old car and it kept happening. I don't know how Subaru could mess up a swaybar bushing design (or how I could put grease on wrong) but somethings up with that design. I'll probably try that red stuff.

I'd suggest lithium grease. It's surprising that the stock rubber bushings are squeaking.
