Specifically, the center rubber bushings on the front sway bar and the rubber bushings for the rear leaf springs.
If so, what kind of grease do you use?

Petroleum products are a no-no around rubber, use silicone as a lube.

Silicone grease is best for longevity but spray silicone works OK and easier to apply.  I found "Liquid Wrench" brand to be a bit less runny so it stays in place better.
