Re: Body Mounts. Energy Suspension or standard?
Humidity is really pervasive. Having spent a lot of time working in Michigan, I can certainly understand the corrosion. I usually put a thin film of lithium grease on the mating surfaces of the bushings to help slow the moisture from making its way between the rubber bushing and mount.
