My noisy bushing $10.00 "fix"

Ok , So i felt the need to post this one for whoever wants to try it out.. my noisey front control arm bushings.. have been silenced.. with a can of drive belt dressing spray.. My 2014 gt with only 40k miles creaked and groaned over every speed bump or hump it found, driver side only.. .. my take on it was that due to heat and wear the bushings are just not as pliable and probably dried out and cracked.. I bought a can of belt dressing spray and sprayed the crap out of the front and back of the "large main " bushing on the front control arm.. this would be the one closest to the oil pan ...

I go to a gym daily that has speed bumps and over the last week the groaning / squeaking is gone.. its worth a shot .. it worked for me.. i also replaced my sway bar bushing with poly bushing and sway bar end links.. also i have upgraded front shocks they are gt500 with gt500 mount.. i still had the bushing noise after all this .. untill i used the belt dressing spray..

Id like to add this is not really a fix.. just kinda quiets things down..

hope this helps someone. ..
