don't half cheek it, go all in or don't. Just get an energy suspension poly kit. Put the lube where it needs to go.

The problem with the energy suspension and other bushing companies is there is no grease track to keep the grease in the rear shackle bushings.

You can cut a channel into the bushing with a small skinny hand saw or cut a few small grooves into the through bolt. Also don't over tighten the bolts
