There is a nylon or plastic bushing on mine, should I grease this or run it dry? What grease should I use if I need to?

The wrong grease will disolve the nylon bushings. Should not need lube but Pelican does carry the correct lube.

Weltmeister sold special Lube for there swaybar. That's what I used over the years. Keeps it from squeaking.
