This wouldn't cause squeaks when the suspension is moving up and down gently over bumps would it?

Yes. Yes it would, as I've has to live with that squeak for a few weeks now b/c I haven't had time to change it. One other thing you can try...May or may not work, but worth a shot. Climb under thr front and WD-40 every linkage. I've heard that sometimes a tie rod coulf be squeaking, and WD-40 does the trick.

Will do !!!
What about the rubber bushings on the A arms? how do you lube them ? I assume wd-40 would not be good for them..
