The squeak indicates that the rubber has separated from the metal it was once attached to, inside the bushing. Replace the bushings, grease will do nothing but accelerate the disintegration of the rubber. Karl Mullendore Westy Ventures 1987 Westfalia Syncro 1.9TD ----- Original Message ----- Has anybody tried anybody tried drilling, taping and putting a grease fitting on the upper control arm bushings to stop the squeak? Do you drill thru the rubber all the way till you touch the inner metal sleeve, or do you just drill thru the outer metal jacket? Thanks, ~Dan
