Is that how you lubricated yours? Or did you just spray around the bushing area?

My bushings are only 14k kms old. That's very early for them to fail, especially since the originals lasted 140k.
imo doing what the guy did is a bit overkill, probably not that effective even on short term and overall, at this point just replace it.

I simple spray a shit load of chain grease on the busing. Did nothing the 1st few ride, then I spray a ton more, and this time gone, about a year ago !

But note I dont use my car often, I maybe did 6000 km since then.

Probably PB baster Surface shield should work too, this stuff is thick
