Default Darn Squeak

OK i posted awhile back about having a squeak coming from under the rear and I thought they where the bmr LCA i installed. Well it is the oem rear sway bar. I spray it with silicone lubricant and it quiets for a day then it comes back. Will an aftermarket sway bar fix it or is there something wrong with the geometry from the LCA??? It is driving me nuts. Can i replace the oem bushings with something else?? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

I believe you can get new endlinks from Ford or aftermarket. Should just go ahead and get a new aftermarket sway bar from BMR or Steeda.....JMO J

Thats what i was thinking too. Just get an aftermarket but if its something wrong with the geometry than the aftermarket would start doing the same thing. Oh well at least ill have a better one

I had a squeak that was driving me crazy. It was coming from the two large winged nuts that hold the lower control arms on.The winged part of one of the nut was rubbing against the rear sway bar. Take a look just to be sure.

I went to the dealership to get this fixed. It ended up costing me 900 bucks....
