I believe the "special grease" is simply silicon grease. A lifetime suppl;y tube of Dow Corning 111 or 112 can be found in your local industrial park for somewhere near $10. It's the absolute best stuff for things like electrical connections and o-rings. And it stands the best chance of keeping those bushings quiet longest.

Mobil 1 makes a synthetic grease too - comes in standard grease-gun tube size.

This stuff is so thick it would never, ever come out of a grease gun (IMO).
And I agree about the Dow Corning 111. I just bought some and it seems to be the same stuff I just used in my bushings. |
