What's the Proper Grease/Lube/Oil for Suspension
I've been searching through CL and could not find an answer. What is the proper grease/lube/oil to use to keep the suspension components moving freely and to prevent premature wear?

hmm.. i really didnt take to much thought into that , but i have two things of grease. 1, all purpose 2, high temp (was told used for braking components)
its been almost a year and i've used my all purpose grease on my sway bar bushings. this past week i tweaked the sway bars and notice no wear on the bushings.

Looks like I'll be greasing all my bushings with all-purpose grease.

to be exact i used the costal all purpose grease its in a red tube, just pop the top and apply it to what ever.
to save time just apply it with ur finger u going to get dirty regardless.
dont be shy with the stuff eitehr i applied the grease to other parts as well.
