Lithium grease for steering rack bushings?

Hello!

This weekend I will be changing out my steering rack bushings for Energy Suspension polyurethane bushings and I want to ensure the grease I use will be sufficient.
They will be sending their brand specific grease with the sway bar bushings I ordered but I’m not sure if there will be enough to cover the steering rack bushings as well.
I have Valvoline multi-purpose grease that says it is applicable for suspension parts but seeing as it’s lithium based I’m not sure if it will end up drying out or damaging the bushings over time.
And insight would be appreciated!

For poly bushings you want a silicone grease. Energy Suspension sells their stuff, you can find the part numbers for different amounts here.
