Hello Listers,

New member here, first posting to the group...

I'm about to embark on a front end rebuild, the previous owner supplied with 
me a slew of front end parts including the urethane bushings.  I plan on 
using these as they seem of good quality.  My question/concern is the 
squeaking some of you are mentioning.  I'm curious about the silicone based 
grease, will any generic part-silicone grease work?  Or are there any 
particular brands any of you have used and/or prefer?

Thanks for your input.  Regards to all.
