    And just how would one grease them incorrectly??

    I installed PST polygraphite bushings on the front of an '83 Firebird. I used the grease that is supplied by PST. They are noisy. It's not real bad, certainly not as bad as regular polyurethane without grease.

    I just think that unless you're building a slalom racer, new rubber bushings are plenty stiff for the front of a maverick, and less expensive too...

    Yep... we'll try that. A few here wish they had gone rubber. Anyone know where I can get the complete rubber kit.

    I love this forum... just stop talkin about the speak english stuff... There are much more (car related) things we can be talking about here. They are guys out there really wanting to learn!!
