Finally silenced my rear axle squeak!!

So for the last year or so i started getting a loud annoying squeak from the rear axle. I was reading on here about recentering the rear axle. I did that yesterday hoping it would help with the noise. But after all was said and done, the rear axle was making more noise than before. So today i removed the lateral support and the scott Russell link and then lubed every bushing and bolt inside and out. Here is a pic of the link just put back in after being lubed.

Once it was all back together, I went for a ride and it was nice and quiet. Finally. Took about an hour to do and was well worth it. I just wanted to share this great news with all here. Thanks for all the info on this site.
