Replacing Bushings - Honda Forum / Acura Forum

I bought the Energy Suspension Hyper-flex master kit and this weekend going to replace my bushings, my question is do you have to grease the new bushings before installing them?

Thanks,

Carefully-but liberally-use all of the grease in the package. DO NOT use the bushings for the shocks-these are off road only. We only did the rear of the car and both sway bars (end links too). Get a pair of the big TA bushings and plan to do them as well. It will make a real difference.
