> 1. What sort of grease should I use?
If you disassemble, my suggestion would be either dry-film moly (eg CRC
"Moly Lube") or a high quality silicone grease (like that sold for greasing
steam valve stems). (Haven't tried this since I don't have poly bushings)

You could try spray motorcycle chain lube. It comes out very thin, so it
will penetrate, but dries to a heavy grease. Also very water resistant
(ordinary lithium grease doesn't hold up well when wet and your suspension
is bound to get wet occasionally). Spray silicone might work too.

Nylatron doesn't squeak, but is a bit firmer/harsher than the poly. May
need more work to fit as well, I had to ream mine to fit.
