Default Panhard install

I am planning on installing my single adjust LG panhard tomarrow along with my poly tranny mount on my '02 SS and I am wondering if I need to lube the rod end and/or the poly bushing end of the rod? If so...what type of lube should I get?

This is the only way the aluminum pieces that come with it will go into it nicely, is with some grease. Hey it can't hurt anything that I know of. I used lithium chassis grease.
