Update on addco rsb

I had had trouble with mine squeeking and then clunking for some reason. I found some greasable bushings by Engergy Suspension at Autozone for about $17.00. I had to bend part of the link flat to make the new bracket fit((the oem link where it has the two bolts protruding) because the new bracket was larger than the old one plus the new busing was wider than the addco), however no more squeeking or clunking. Just thought I'd share if anyone else was having the same problem.

I just greased the bushings that came with the Addco with Energy Suspension bushing grease. It was $3, and I've never experienced any squeaking at all.

I had greased the ones that came with it and after a couple of days it would start squeeking on me. I have heard of others having this same problem. I also had a clunking sound whenever the right rear wheel was on rebound, I had posted this problem a while back and most folks thought it was the rear struts. However, the new bushings along with a slight adjustment on the angle bracket position where the end of the sway bar connects to wheel seems to have solved the problem. Just thought I'd share for those who were still having problems with the squeeking etc.
