[alfa] 115 Front Lower "A" Arm Bushing Grease Question



Just finished up a complete rebuild of the front and rear suspension on my
1975 Spider and was wondering what type of grease to put in the lower A arm
bushings before I put the grease caps back on.  The Spider Workshop manual
calls for NOVO: Calypsol AE63.  I can not find anything on the net for this
type of grease and was wondering if anybody might know an equivalent.  I ended
up cutting one of the old bushings in half to see how it was made.  There is
no rubber in the bushing just two plastic (poly?) cups that enclose the inner
spherical metal part of the bushing with the whole thing surrounded by the
outer metal jacket.  I took some pictures of the innards if anybody is
interested.
