Default Squeeking front control arms...

Everytime I hit a bump the front control arms squeek. Is there any easy way of quieting them down without replacing the bushings? This is with rubber bushings, not poly. Thanks.

Try some spray lithium grease on the bushings. It took care of my squeak, but it will return when the grease wears/washes out.

It's fairly common to have the sway bar bushing that attach to the frame squeak. You can put some grease on them to quiet them down. Just some idea's.

Hmm... I guess it could be the sway bar bushings. I will have to try that tomorrow.
