Default Bushings in RE lift kit very noisey?

Any ideas how to quiten the bushings down. I spray them with silicone but after about 3 days they start making noise again.

I have alot of noise coming from the front end. When I spray silicone on bushings in the sway bar connector bushings and lower control arm bushings they quiten down but it doesn't last long.

are they new? or old?


check your bolt tightness...should not move.


if they're old, then they're worn. replace.

if they're new, they're still worn. call and have them send you new ones.
