What type of grease

The company says use synthetic silicon grease on the bushings. What do you guys use? Where did you get it?

I use Valvoline grease. I can't recall if it is a full synthetic or semi-synthetic.

ES bushings come with a tube of it.

I'd say check an auto parts store... just a guess though.

My PST kit came with a small amount of synthetic silicon grease which cant be found anywhere in the Tampa, Florida area. Unfortunantly I think I'll have to order it on-line.
