Use the white grease makes it easy to put them in unless you have greasable shackles then yes grease them after every trip and don't forget to grease your drive shafts |

Just grease the whole lot up. There's nowhere it shouldn't go. Rubber grease washes out almost instantly. There's really no point greasing rubber bushes except as an assembly aid. It will be gone after the first decent trip, which is fine because rubber bushes were designed to work without grease. Steve. |

Don't worry about buying grease, just use toothpaste.... more flex than a flip top head! |

Then how come when you install brand new genuine rubber bushes on brand new shackles they squeak like hell when they are dry? |

Lol you haven't seen or heard my sierra then Maybe because your stock bushes and stock shackles don't just go through a stock range of motion anymore There's a reason my zook is named squeeky! |
