What's the best grease for suspension bushes?
Sloan85 - 18/4/14 at 08:47 AM

When assembling my suspension I used silicone lubricant but it was a spray. Now it is creaking quite badly so I need to strip it all down to re-grease.

I now have a proper silicone grease but was wondering if there is anything better that I should be using.

Cheers

i would just use the silicone grease, or just multipurpose

I used molybdenum disulphide grease. It's been recommended on here several times.

Just normal greasy grease for me, (Convert from coppaslip, that just dries out)

normal black moly grease is great as it's unaffected by water, I use it as underseal too

I use red rubber grease. It doesn't dry out and it's lot less messy tham molly grease to use

I believe coppaslip is ever so slightly abrasive as well?

Use moly grease normal grease has petrol in it which rots the polybush.
