Default What grease gun for Cobb sways?

What size grease gun fits the grease nipple on the Cobb swaybar mounts to re-grease the bushings?

Also what grease would be best to use?

Nobody knows? I have some very bad squeaking and I think it is the sway bars, so I would really like to re grease them and see if the noise stops.

The stock mounts don't have a grease nipple.

Take them off, lube them and put them back on. I recommend using CU 1100.

skip the grease. use a couple of wraps of teflon plumbers tape around the bar where the bushing contacts.
