I wrapped my friend's MSP's rear sway bar with teflon tape before re-installing the OEM bushings, it has completely eliminated the squeak. Previously we tried all kinds of grease to no avail, so give it a shot and let me know how it goes!

I will warn you though, get the quality ones from Lowes/Home Depot and not the $0.99 package from Advance Auto. I've had problems with my fittings leaking because the el cheapo Advance tape was super thin and sucked.
 
i've heard that trick before. much cleaner than getting grease everywhere.
 
Marine grease worked well for me. I put in on when I replaced the bushings over a year ago and have only heard it squeak a handful of times the past couple months. It was silent until it turned cold.
