The sound finally went away with an heavier application from the grease gun into the zirks yesterday. I used a heavy duty tractor bearing grease
I have been told that the bushing should have silicone grease on their outer surface and under the flange, which makes sense now. So I'll pull the arms, remove the bushings and try the silicone grease. The creak started to come back today, albeit less noisy. Any tip on do's / dont's on greasing bushings will be appreciated |

QUOTE Eric, did your parent raise you to be like this? Like what Rich? I've simply replied to every slam you've thrown my way and every slam that you dished out about a bushing that you've never even held in your hand. If you mean, did my parents raise me to stick up for myself and right what is clearly wrong; yes, my parents raised me like this. You are commenting on a totally different bushing and you can't come to terms with that and say you were mistaken. Did your parents raise you to be like that? QUOTE Would you have the courage to talk to someone face to face like this? Like what Rich? You know what country we live in. I can't stand up to you in a public forum and defend what I consider a really good product? I can't offer proper advice to Jim? I surely would talk to someone, you, anyone "face-to-face" about it. Why wouldn't I? I believe in what I sell. You have no experience with it. You bag it. I WILL STAND UP TO YOU. Make sense? Would you walk up to my face and say "we don't need to bow and obey you" -or- "get over yourself" when I simply offered another (my) opinion on 70D Poly bushings? Would you call me an ass to my face for simply trying to point out that you are talking about two different bushings that are "Worlds" apart? Now... that's something I doubt, on "all" counts. Repeat after me Rich: "I have no experience with these harder 70D Poly bushings. It would be best if I stopped now.", "I have no experience with these harder 70D Poly bushings. It would be best if I stopped now.", "I have no experience with these harder 70D Poly bushings. It would be best if I stopped now." (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stfu.gif) please. |
