Have you heard your polyurethane bushings making any noise?

I did at first install, but after they were relubed I haven't heard a peep! Not even this winter when you expect the worst noise.

same thing here, I had to get it lubed twice.

one thing i have now is that when i make a tight right hand turn up a driveway (like i have to do when i visit the wife dt) i hear a really bad noise. i think there's so much twist that something dosent like that. but since it only happens then i'm cool with it. rick said because my joint bolts were so seized he had to get creative getting them off so they may need to be replaced because of that. i'm thinking when it warms up that'll go away too...

right now the only irritating noise i get is cuz of the motor mounts. sometimes at idle its quiet and sometimes it sounds like my whole front end is gonna fall off...

Not a peep from mine either. Still new however and only taken the car out a couple of times. But I read from others they had noises emediatly. Vince just slaped on the lube/jelly that comes with the bar and that's it. We'll see how it goes.

The creaking was terrible at first, had to get it relubed. Now the only time I hear it when going up/down a driveway, like Cal. I can live with it.

I hear lots of creeking but I'm not sure if it's the sway bar or the coilovers ... but it's a little noisy over bumps.

Well its probably most convienant to have Sherman do it. But a bunch of people had it done at Ricks. He relubed mine cuz it was squeaky...

or you could install it free at Grant's Garage.... however you might have to rake some leaves or something while you're waiting...
