The front end squeaks constantly squeaks while driving, especially over bumpy roads. I have replaced the front control arm bushing with Energy Suspension urethane bushings (nongreaseable). The ball joints and sway bar linkages have been replaced along will any bushings involved in this procedure. I have not yet replace the sway bar bushings but am contemplating replacing them with Energy Suspension greaseable bushings. I am currently deployed to Iraq with the military and will most likely sell or trade in the truck upon my return. I fear that although I do not believe the squeak to be an indicator of a major problem, it may reduce the selling price or trade-in value. I am looking for a low cost solution. Please help.
