I wonder if long fiber grease would work. I use this with diesel engine - pump couplings made by Faulk. They are flexible and this stuff is real thick and sticky, gets on everything. Use disposable gloves!

They provide a sticky black grease specially made for poly bushings. It is NOT graphite lube. The Porsche race cars would really squeak loudly until they came out with their grease. After we applied the grease the noises completely went away & it lasted a long time as well. It's a bitch to work with because it's so thick & sticky but it works big time. I no longer work for the race shop so I don't have any of the grease but I used to buy it from Performance Products. They have a web site but I would think you could buy it at any place that sells Weltmeister. Hammer --- pablo <jpdart@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > no, I did not lube the bushings.
