Sway Bar Bushing Question

I'm going to be changing out the swaybar bushings (along with a bunch of other suspension work) for new, stock rubber bushings. The Bentley manual says to use Contiflix lubricant on the new bushings. I'm sure this isn't a must-have. Any other similar (silacone-type) products out there that are just as good?
Thanks..

I use to owna bike shop, and remembered that grip shift company made a thick, sticky lube called (grip shift snot lube) you can probably get them at your local bike shop who carries them.

They actually work very well, I have used in all my past 911's sway bar bushings.

I was thinking of snorting some to relieve this nasty congestion...

Kurt,

As usual ... any of the Dow Corning 4, 111, or 112 silicone greases work well! TRW Sil-Glyd would work, too, but not my recommendation!
