After installing 75D control arm bushings, my car became extremely noisy under the car. The ride is a tad bit rougher, which is fine by me and expected as well. But the noise amount makes me question if it is normal. It sounds like a lot of popping and bed sqeeking during procreation.

they are urethane correct?
the pop/squeek is the sound of the urethane rubbing against the steel.
get some copper or alum anti seize and lube the shit out of it. it is cheaper than the silicone based urethane specific lubes and will last longerseien Sie größer, als Sie erscheinen

Yes it is urethane. Do you recommend a certain brand? And how do I lube it, do I have to take the bushings out again with the CAs? That would be a huge pain.Comment

at least take them off of the control arms. while they are off take a small file and cut some groves in the ID (inner diameter) to trap the anti seize.
the OD shouldn't rotate in the mount since it is a tight press in fit.
wear gloves and go crazy with the anti seize (too much) then just wipe off the excess once you slide the arm back in. it is messy and will get everywhere, be aware of that.
any brand will do, i would suggest buying the big jar of it, it come in handy for lots of moving parts and bolts.seien Sie größer, als Sie erscheinen
