I had found before that a good grease can not just prevent squeaks, but also help with vibration dampening. I have a tub of ES's Formula 5 that I'll be applying. Damn sticky stuff, but it always worked quite well for me...

I was hoping to provide a good article on the topic, but can't find it now.
I coated them all. Used everything I had. they don't squeak, yet.

I just picked up a stock 98 vs re-done 97

when I say cold I mean 15 F or lower

98 stock still has OEM shocks/springs/mounts rides nice even when cold.
97 redo has eibach and all poly, when cold it rides like a board.

a lot of variables could contribute to this... links, bushings... so it's hard to tell I guess really.

all the engineering docs rave up and down about poly, and how it's so much better in every way. The more poly I use the less I like it.
