I just replaced worn bushings on the trailing arms and put back the front sway bar from Suspension technique with urethane bushings.

On small bumps at low speed, the front end squeaks...

Is it beacuse of the urethane bushings???

Suspension Techniques urethane products come with a small packet of silicone grease-the grease goes in every metal to urethane contact. The grease is available from autoparts stores-at least in my area.

OK, that may explain the noise..

But I di not want to desinstall..and reinstall again..

can I leave them that way??

As long as the noise doesn't bother you-but they will wear faster without the lubricant.

You can also drill holes and tap them to accept zerk fittings. Then just drill a corresponding hole in the bushing itself so that you can lube them regularly. Teflon tape and lube only last so long, being able to add more lube without taking the thing apart is a good idea.

THank you for the info. I will have this perform when I install the rear sway bar also... This time, I will lube it...

Jon, did you groove the bushing all the way around so the grease had somewhere to go?

No. I figured the bar would spread it around. Not a bad idea though!

EDIT-- I should also say that I called Energy Suspension and they said normal moly grease was fine for use with poly bushings.

WEll, I've put some grease, and dawn it... it is not doing any good...

Hope I wont have to remove the sway bar and start over again..

When I press on either of the front corner I can hear that funny squeaky noise, like squick squick..

Annoying.. tonight, I went for a small ride, people were looking at me... and wondering what was that noise..

Any quick fix.. ?

It could be the rubber bushings at the ends of the sway bar. Just a guess.

OK, problem solved this morning.

White grearse has ended the sqeaking noise.

I drive in peace now!
