Thumbs up suspension squeek FIXED!!!!

So I found out I had the infamous suspension squeek from the rear ball joint/control arm assembly. No I thought to just replace it but I didnt want to really spend the time and did some research and thought about it a bit and saw it was getting a bit worn down. This isnt sure fire as it depends in your situation but is definatly worth trying. First I went through a car wash with undercarriage wash to get all the gunk out and then went home and used Blaster white lithium grease to soak the bushings, joints etc. 3 days later and its still holding up, seems to ride a bit better as well. I highly recommend the Blaster brand (home depot has it) as its thicker and its composition is much better suited. $20 fix! Good luck!
