Hi team, Just wondered about installing upper control arm Bushes. Do you grease the inside of theses Bushes? Assuming yes since it's steel on steel...

If you are talking about OEM type bushes then no grease is required.

Steel on steel yes, but these bushes are stationary. It is the the rubber that does the pivoting.

 

Don't tighten the nuts until the weight is back on them.
