All of the front suspension parts are stripped, POR-15 coated and ready for reassembly (finally!). I've got the Weltmeister Poly bushings to install, but I keep hearing about 'squeekage' associated with these (not stock) type of bushings. Any special grease you guys can recommend?
I've also heard somewhere about installing grease zerts (spelling?). Anyone done this, and how well does it work? |

QUOTE(JOHNMAN @ Mar 24 2004, 09:12 AM) That grease, good as it is, does eventually wear/wipe off then the suspension squeaks again. With all the plastic bushings I have used, I have gotten used to living with some degree of squeak. No matter how much grease you try to get in there, it only lasts so long. I am considering trying to figure out a way to regrease those things without disassembly. hmm.... i hhavent installed that suspension yet... how would one go about zerk fitting them? tap a hole in the plastic and metal housing? |
