    I have a Perrin PSRS installed that I think is creating the screaming noise from the 7th level of hell in my car. I believe my version has the grease fittings on them. So, I'm wondering what kind of grease I should squeeze into there. Something water resistant I imagine...

    Your advice is appreciated :)

    Thanks,
    - Justin K.

    I think that most people use a white lithium grease. I will need to double check that.

    yup, just an illustration for IROC-Z

    here's something I found, but i don't believe anything special like this is really needed

    Prothane Super Grease contains versatile water-proof, non-melting Teflon and is formulated to seal out water and to lubricate under the most adverse conditions. It’s superior adhesive and extreme pressure qualities, combined with it’s urethane compatibility makes it the only one to use.

    that's what I've been reading, but I want to be sure so that I don't have to regrease the damn thing every month from water getting in there.

    I suppose maybe some synthetic suspension grease, or the white lithium stuff would work then...Thanks guys :)
