What type of grease is everyone using for the delrin control arm bushings, and where did you get it.

PROTHANE, comes with the MM bushings. Used to be able to get it at Ramchargers (they are gone)

I might have a few left, have to check.

I was thinking about installing grease fitting in mine. Delrin is suppose to be self lubrication but I think over the long haul re-greasing the bushing would be better. Any views on this? How well do they hold up?

I have the MM bushings. The upper bushing actually rotates between the outside surface of the bushing and the UCA hole. What are people doing to prevent is from rotaing from the outside? Pin it?

Hmmm..... Nick's = crap, agreed. Now I get to deal with them. One guy said use heavy duty waterproof wheel bearing grease. I'm not sure what to do now. Hopefully I can come up with a reasonable solution to get me through the summer. Mine are getting chewed up in a hurry. I got the black paste of death between the delrin and the aluminum.
