Marine grease for UCA bushings?

[Be_Original]

Just purchased a set of UCA's. I know Teflon grease is recommended for the bushings but it is hard to source in the city and I am planning to install the UCA's tomorrow. Will marine grade grease suffice? My only concern is not knowing if the additives in marine grease will play nice with polyurethane.

Thanks

if you have a harbor freight in your area get some superlube. I'd make sure you use something that won't damage the bushings.

let us know how those built right UCA's are.

i was also thinking th same thing for my camburgs that came in yesterday. was thinking about a grease ball and roller for mine since there is no harbor frieght in my area? any other suggestions?

Synthetic grease of any brand for the bushings and teflon spray for the uniballs

If I can offer my experienced advice - do not use anything other than actual chassis/bushing grease, such as that made by Energy Suspension. I've been round and round on this on my race cars, and I always end up with squeaks. Bushing grease is very tacky and lasts forever. Not going to help you at this point since you have to get the job done asap, but you might want to consider this for the future.

This is the grease we recommend:

Super-Lube Synthetic Multi-Purpose Grease 14oz Cartridge

i picked up the following for my camburge BJ arms: Energy Suspension 9.11104

supposedly the same kind of stuff camburg sells for $40/tube (Camburg Super Bushing Grease 14 oz. Tube) on their site. VERY sticky stuff!!

wonder how the super-lube stuff compares [MENTION=87036]YotaDan[/MENTION]?

yeah, unfortunately they don't have it in the big tubes for grease gun but that lube is legit. pretty sure its the same stuff camburg supplies with their UCA kits.

My harbor freight didn't carry the cartridges of super lube. I had to use some lithium grease I found at auto zone. Hope it is alright.

Im going to order some super lube for the next round of lubing though.

Is this stuff super tacky?

If you put some between your fingers it is stringy tacky.
