Default 2006 mustang sway bar bushing noise

So i just got a new sway bars along with that, new bushings.

i installed them together and drove and noticed a big clunk on every bump i went on. someone told me i had to put grease on the bushings, so i took the bushings out and put some grease on it. after driving again, still.... those F#@$en noise come out again.... anybody recognize this problem? everything is tight including the sway bar links

Did you reuse the stock sway to chassis links at the front. If so getting and keeping them tight may be your problem. Blue loctite is a minimum requirement.

I gave up and bought a set of Sam's front links.

I had clunking with my suspension setup, it was loose bolts, if you re-used some of the bolts, they need the blue Loctite and have to be torqued slightly more than the original spec. They were designed as one time use.
