I picked up my control arms from my mechanic and he told me to add some silicone lube to the ends of the bushing and don't tighten up any of the bushing until the car is on the ground or it will squeek. The lower one may be a bear to do. I don't know if this holds water but I'll give it a shot. I wonder if this would help some of you guys with squeeky poly bushings? o No:
Squeek-squeek I Have Put Urethane Bushing Kits In Two Regals Now. What Your Mechanic Is Telling You Is Correct. If You Ord. From Energy Susp Or Soemone Reputable Of The Like, Usually Silicone Paste Is Supplied, And Where Ever The Face Of A Control Arm Bushing Contacts Metal, Apply Liberally. It Is Important To Tighten The Susp. Upon Installation, But Do Not Torque To Spec Yet. After An Alignment Has Been Performed, And The Car Has Been Roadtested, Torque All Necessary Fasters To Spec With It On The Ground. The Lowers Can Be Accessed By Driving Up Onto Someting Like A Coule 2x12's Or....good Luck. What Kind Of Shock Are You Using?...i Recommend Edlebrocks' New I.s. Series, They Work Great.
Thanks Rivi1379, I went with Monroe Sens-a-traq. It was the best I could find to fit my funky frontend.
