If you can isolate the contact points on the springs making the noise,
you can spray them with Silicone Spray.  I have to use it every month or
so on my upgraded sway bar or it squeaks over bumps and braking as well.

Subject: Front end squeeking

My front end is sqeeking since installation of the Schwenk springs about
a
year and a half ago. The squeeking is when the bus uses the front
suspention on
braking or bumps. At higher speeds it's not noticable because of ususal
road
noise. But at low speeds--parking lots and the like--seems to be getting
worse,
or maybe just more annoying. Any ideas?
