Silicone spray lube or dishwashing detergent (no water, just the plain detergent) will make it MUCH easier to get the bushing in. We made a puller for the W115 chassis as they would "bounce" if you tried to hammer them in.
So long as they stay put, lube doesn't matter, except that petroleum based ones tend to soften the rubber badly (and you don't want that).
