A friend and I installed some G2 poly/rod LCAs today, and I was wondering what you guys use to clean and lube your heim joints. I already greased the poly side.
Thanks,

Only thing that stops the noise with my rod ends is motor oil or grease with the ends that came with my PA A arms. They probably won't last long with oil but they are junk anyway. They make self lubricating rod ends that I will buy to replace them when they are worn out.

I would take the metal bushings of the heim joints out. coat the part that slips into the heim joint with antisiez.(SP?) That has worked for me with all of my heim joints. I don't have one bushing in my car...they are all either solid or heim.
