Rear antisway bar squeak

I have noticed that the rear of the car has developed an annoying squeak when I go over bumps. I kneeled on the back bumper and I can get it to squeak on each compression.

Any thoughts on what is causing this? The car has 36,000 miles on it. I had a racingline RASB installed last year. Could that be causing the squeak? Could the struts already be going? Not sure where to go from here.

Thanks

Your bushings need replacing.

Yeah, the one tube of lube they give you with the RSB isn't enough. I bought a couple extra tubes when the RSB was installed & had them grease the ***t out of the bushings-- no squeaks.

The best thing you can put on polyurethane bushings is antiseize. Preferably the Permatex one that comes in the grey bottle.

Thing never evaporates or dries up. Much better than the grease that RacingLine sends you
