Reply to "Suspension Arm Grease Zerks"

richardtMember

My question is the grease to lubricate the bushing or just to stop squeaking? My bushings are graphite impregnated and do not squeak at this time.

The zerk fittings on the uprights my car had zerk fittings in the middle of the upright with a hole drilled through the upright but not through the sleeve in the middle. It was siezed up with rust where water had gotten in around the attachment rod. When I rebuilt the uprights I added two zerk fittings, one at each end of the uprights. The brass bushings had a groove cut in them to allow the grease to cover the entire surface. I also drilled the sleeve to allow the grease to reach the inside of the sleeve. I filled the entire assembly with waterproof grease.
