rear poly shock bushings



That would be me :D  ....I'm soooo proud.
They've only been in for a month and a half or so .... only the driver's 
side one is squeaking. I'm wondering if the guy I had do it actually used 
the lube on both sides like he said he did. The passenger side one is silent 
so far.

Anyway, it's loud, lol. Not too bad from outside the car but I guess because 
of where it is and how it's bolted to the car it gets amplified inside.

Perspective .... I have all four poly motor mounts(now THAT's loud) and I 
find this irritating, lol. I'd still do it again though, I'm really happy 
with the difference over the old worn out OEM ones they replaced.


HTH
