    go to www.p-s-t.com and ask if they have polygraphite bushings for this S/T sway bar. These polygraphite bushings are polyurethane impregnated with graphite so they lubricate themselves. I have PST polygraphite bushings for my stock front sway bar and have a Progress rear sway bar (with their supplied poly bushings) and I get no squeaks due to sway bar. The only lil squeak type noise I get is from the Ingalls front camber kit because I have the poly bushing version when I take inclined entrances/where the front upper arms flex.

    Another option is to integrate grease zerts into the bushings/brackets and grease them at certain intervals.

      x2.....lubricate the bushings and u should be all set. also, if u just installed it, it will take time for the bushing to "break in" initialy there may be some squeaks. but after all the force applied to them they will ease up a lil and squeaks should cease to exist..
