    Grease question

    So I've got a panhard rod, and LCAs with poly bushings. The directions say to use silicon grease. Ok. I go look for a tube of silicon grease at Oreilys for my grease gun. Bottom line is I can't find it. By not using silicon grease, will this cause premature wear on the bushings? What should I use?

    Thanks

    I got the 411. I'm told to use a synthetic grease. Marine grease is acceptable. Potroleum based grease is NOT. It will eat away the poly bushings.

    I'm gonna go with Mobile1 sythetic grease. Ya I know, I'm overpaying.
