    The rear spring bushings are rubber and non-servicable. Unless you are just trying to pinpoint the squeak, spraying them is anything from a waste of time to downright detrimental to the life of the rubber, depending on what you use. Use soapy water in a spray bottle if you are just trying to locate a squeak. A good visual inspection will usually give a better idea of condition though.

    It sounds like you are on the right track with a u-joint. A dry cup will typically make cricket like sounds.
