Super Lube for ball joints

Reassembling my new front end and I'm wondering if Super Lube Multipurpose Grease would be okay to use for all the ball joints as well as the delrin and poly bushings?

Neither application is all that picky. Ball joints and other chassis joints are generally happy as long as they are not dry (make sure their boots are there and not cracked), poly bushings will work without grease, but anything you can get to stay in there is better than nothing. If Super Lube chassis grease is like their other grease, the nice thing about it will be that it's reasonably "clean" for grease.

The ES stuff is very similar just sticky. Honestly, it's nothing special, besides that it's stickier than most other greases.

Honestly, I usually use whatever grease is loaded in my grease gun, which for the most part is whatever synthetic grease I found at the auto parts store when I needed some.

Re: Super Lube for ball joints

Thanks!
I have lucas xtra and super lube(recommended by UMI for their delrin/poly bushing). I'm trying to avoid reloading my grease gun....takes forever to purge the last grease used out of it and get it primed. If I can simply use the Super Lube Multipurpose on everything then I'd be happy.
