maintenence for adjustable suspension arms?

[bobafett]

i am about to install all of the powertrix adjustable arms on my car, and im just wondering whats the proper steps to maintain they have a nice long life? is there a specific type of grease i should use to lube them up. or just slap them on and call it a day!!??!

i dont want to fuck all these things up by being careless. i have searched and not come up with any answer except that white lithium grease on the RCA's should keep them quiet. but it wasnt in regaurds to maintenence.

Unthread all the rod ends and grease them thoroughly, you don't want them dry out because they'll seize up or bind. From there regular maintainence is just a periodic check for wear or damage, and double check the tightness of the adjusters from time to time. If they have a grease fitting, a lube once every oil change is plenty.

thanks for the reply. do you know if there is a specific type of grease that is best to use or will anything work fine?

Waterproof lithium grease.

Especially since you are in WA...http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/appages/sealsit.php

There is also a company that makes full boots for the rod end which you could pack with grease if you wanted to. Can't find them right now though...
