Thanks for the repsonses everyone.

special-k, I was just looking for more/different input. That's a good idea about slathering with anti-seize. Thanks

Yukon, Would you say its worth it to go with the ORD greasables knowing the added work involved and that I will not do any hardcore rock crawling? To go greasable has to be compelling enough for me to cut up my new bushings in my new springs. Not sure I need the extra flex that ORD claims but I was interested in anything that would give me better ride quality. I guess what I'm asking is, what was your motivation to get the greasables? Do you use your '69 for hardcore stuff? Thanks
