    If it were me, I'd redo both of them. Not new bushings, but fresh correct grease and then torque them correctly with the weight of the truck on the springs.

    Yeah, mine are squeaking too :mad: and have been for about 1400 miles now, since I got the vehicle about a month ago.

    Sprayed with Silicone spray and got small reduction in squeaks.

    Damn!

    Using a spray is probably washing out any of the original Silicone from when the bushing were installed. If you're reading that correctly you should understand that spraying is making your situation worse.

    I didn't have the brand at the time of my original quotes, but @Kwikvette was kind enough to share it later.
