    All my urethane mounts and whatnot are squeeking like crazy! I'm thinking its the cold temperatures. Anyone else have this going on?? Im gonna try re-greasing all of them and see if it helps any.

    Just wondering if I was the only one having this problem...

    I'm all stock suspension so no squeeking here. My car's loving the cold weather though.

    I lubed the sway bar bushings excessively and went for a drive. Everything seems to be better as far as the squeaks are concerned.

    For those of you with sways mounts and endlinks do you not lube the bushings and mounts before install? I use the white grease (dunno what it called off the top of my head) and it keeps squeaks to a minimum.

    could probably spray some lithium grease on there if you needed to

    my car squeaks all the time lol
    I need to lube my sways (that just sounds so dirty :keke: )

    ya I notice it getting worse in the cold though, and it feels like the car is just stiffer in the cold *shrugs*

    I wish I took one b4 I knocked it off the one door though
