Default Grease for poly bushings on the LCAs?

What type of grease is the best to use in the poly bushings of the LCAs?

Regular grease will work, but the best to use would probably be the grease that comes with the poly bushings, Thunder sells packets of it.

I use Pennzoil marine chassis grease designed for boat trailer chassis and bearings. It's suppose to last longer in wet condtions. These control arms have got to see lots of splash from the tires.

I just use the same grease that you would use for a chassis lube. I've used a moly grease in the past and now I'm using Mobil 1 synthetic. Both have worked fine for me.

Regular old Anti-Seize works great. Better than the grease that was supplied with my bushings.

Im about to install some lower control arms on my car today, and was wondering what the best grease(poly bushings) to use would be and where to get it?
