Just called Fulcrum, they quoted me $175 . So Bennoz if you can get them cheaper that would be great. I do also need some other bushes.

If the price difference isn't that great I may just buy the first three locally.

Will definately be getting them through you. How would I go about ordering them?

I give my man the go ahead, you flick me some cash, I pick them up (just round the corner from my work) and we go from there

Sounds good mate.

Told them to grab 'em, should be 2-3 days they're telling me.

Check out the mackay range, prices are good.

3 out of 4 bushes are in I'm told, will flick you a PM & we can do the cash thing

Replied to your PM.

I replaced the rear sway bar bushes today and the squeak is still there.

If I push down on the rear passenger side of the car I can recreate the squeak.

Did you grease them up?

Of course.

Ok, so now we're into either droplinks, control / trailing arm join bush, dog link bushes or trailing arm leading bush...

Can you get your head in there further while someone else presses on the car? Get a better idea on where its coming from?

Cause some of the above mentioned bushes aint easy to replace..

I just went back under the car and the sound appears to be coming from the short dog bone link, when I held onto it while pushing the car up the sound was gone, but as soon as I let go it started again.

droplinks
Was going to say that'd be your next stop.

Nah, not the droplinks. If you look at the second photo in the following thread it's the shorter dog bone that is squeaking

Thought they were the droplinks?

Meh.

So are the bushes on the dog bone replaceable or do I have replace the whole thing?

Very much so. Its the same bush as used in the control arm.

So the squeak disappeared for a while, it is now back and worse and I finally have time for my complete suspension overhaul and just have a few questions.

What is the best way to get all the alignments close to spec after I'm done so I can drive it safely to get a proper alignment?

Would it be wise to replace the rear arm inner bushes as well while I'm in there?

SuperPro's info states to put lube on all parts of a bush that come into contact with metal but I remember fraz was saying this is not the case. Any info on this?

And are there any other tips anyone can give me?
