rear sway bar squeek!!!

[NDM-SPEC]

OK I've had this problem for quite a while and my problem is exactly what the title is expressing. My rear sway bar is squeeking and is annoying as F@#$. I believe it stated happening after I put my Tein lowering springs. Basically whats happening is after some time the sway bar it self is sliding one way so the mounts are on paint instead of where they are stock. Making the squeeking. I was wondering if someone could tell me why its moving over. Does it have soemthing to do with the endlinks??? Looking for a cure
Thanks,

The bushings need to be greased. Unfortunately it happens to us all.

K but y would that make the whole sway bar move to one side???

Check the collar clamps that are supposed to limit side-to-side movement. My factory ones didn't hold their positions too well. I got upgraded units with my AutoX Racing brackets and they don't move at all.

This literally takes only like 15 minutes to do. All you have to do is jack up the back of the car, roll under and remove the mounting bolts for the brackets on the sway bar. Apply white lithium grease and reattach the brackets. This will fix the squeak for about 6-12 months and then you just have to do it again.

The plus is no more weird looks from pedestrians and less feeling like your driving a hoopty.

Enjoy!

you can also upgrade the bushings and bracket to a greasable one, which have a little nipple for a grease gun in the bracket and grease channels in the bushings to allow grease to move around instead of being squeazed out.

Greasable busings? Now you got my attention. Where did you find these? My front and rear ones give me the constant greasing headached, those would be awesome to have

what your experiencing is called the dreaded Clunk, we all deal with it, and you'll keep dealing with it every month or every year until you get this:
