I forgot the name if the grease, but you can find it at any parts store. The little brass or silver nipple on the LCA's is what you use to grease them up with. You have to have a grease gun to inject the grease into the fittings.

Get some Lucas Red & Tacky. Cover your bushings real good during install then hit the fittings with a couple of squirts, twice a year.
