    Hi Rob
    Welcome to TacomaWorld
    Lube the bushings or swap out poly bushings for rubber ones. Rubber won't last as long as poly but are much quieter.

    Red and Tacky stays put but has to be hand packed into bushing and that's like greasing a cats butt.
    Fluid Film spray with straw applicator is easier. Don't use WD40 unless you really want to do it daily.

    Lithium grease in the can with the straw applicator sprayed in between the leafs worked for me.
