Description Vehicle Fitment Technical Data Install Guide Energy Suspension Formula 5 Bushing Grease If you're installing polyurethane bushings, this is the grease that keeps them quiet. The number one complaint about poly bushings is squeak, and almost every time it comes down to a dry or poorly greased install. Energy Suspension's Formula 5 Prelube is formulated specifically for polyurethane, so unlike white lithium or generic chassis grease, it stays put on the bushing instead of running off the first time things heat up. Use it on any poly bushing install, control arms, sway bar bushings, motor mount inserts, shock mounts, and you head off the squeak before it starts. Every Energy Suspension bushing kit ships with the minimum amount of grease to do the job, and not a bit extra. That's the problem. If you lose some, or you have to press a bushing back out and reinstall it, you're suddenly short. Grabbing a tub or a few tubes of Formula 5 alongside your kit is cheap insurance against stopping a suspension job halfway through because you ran out of grease. It's the same stuff that comes in the kit, just enough of it to actually finish the work without rationing. Sizes 9.11104 8 oz tub. The one to get if you're doing a full bushing kit or a master set, plenty to coat everything with margin left over. 9.11110 3-pack of 0.5 oz tubes. Good for topping off a single set of bushings or keeping a couple in the toolbox for next time. What it is Type Polyurethane bushing prelube grease Waterproof Yes Non-melting Yes, holds up to heat without running off Film Chemical-resistant, prevents metal-to-metal contact under shock loads Fitment Universal, for any polyurethane bushing What to know before you buy A few notes from doing this job plenty of times. First, this grease is sticky. Genuinely sticky, the kind that doesn't come off your hands without soap and some scrubbing, or a rag with WD-40. That tackiness is exactly why it works on poly and why it stays where you put it, but wear gloves and expect a bit of a mess. Second, coat liberally. A thin smear is how you end up with a squeak six months later. Get full coverage on every contact surface of the bushing and the sleeve. Third, don't substitute white lithium grease, it turns to liquid and runs off as soon as the part sees heat, and then you're pulling the suspension back apart to fix a squeak you could have avoided. If you're ordering a bushing kit from us, add the 8 oz tub to the cart. It's the single cheapest thing you can do to make sure your poly bushings go in right the first time and stay silent down the road. -
