Polybronze bushings question
How often should I be greasing these on a street car in Socal?

I grease mine twice a season, and that works just fine. If I were to drive in heavy rain for a long trip, or real dusty trip, I'd grease it after I return.
It takes mere minutes to grease, so it's not really an issue.

Just while we are on the subject: What type of grease gun fits the nipples on Poly Bronze? And should the grease -ports point up or down?
