[DeTomaso] Subject: Suspension bushings squeaking

[jderyke at aol.com]

Some bushing vendors use graphite-impregnated poly, which is self-lubricating. There are hundreds of "poly" formulations made of all kinds of plastics, hardness & degree of slippery-ness. And the benefits of more rigid poly-bushings in place of stock rubber is such that I would ignore any squeaks & concentrate on the better handling. Personally, with free flowing mufflers I can't even hear such small noises...

To stop squeaking poly bushes use PTFE grease.... it is almost like silicone and sticks well unlike normal grease.
Good luck
