Installing RSB- do I need rubber silicone spray/grease?

I am going to attempt to install the Progress RSB today on my '99.

What should I put on the rubber bushings that came with the RSB to prevent squeaking? I've heard before people using lithium grease or silicone rubber spray lubricant. I've also heard that it's a good idea to use this stuff on the bolting points as well.

If I do need the above things for the bushings, please provide me with info on the proper one that won't destroy the rubber and where I can buy this stuff.

Thanks

The Progress kit comes with a small packet of grease. I installed mine many years ago and no noise or any problem so far.
