I did my install of my BMR LCA's last weekend....and thought everything was ok. But every time I start and stop my car....the bushings squeak.

I forgot to grease/lube them. I have NO idea on how to do this. I do have a grease gun.

Can anyone help?

There is greese fitting's on each end on the bottom side. The front end (toword's the front of car), you might have to pull the bolt and drop the arm to access the fitting...

I would pull the arms down again and put a thin film of grease on each side of the bushings as the instructions should tell you to do this. I did the same thing on an 02 GT and had the same problem. I would also do as Justin suggested and grease the fitting, if your grease gun is indeed a grease gun and not an oiling gun you can just slip the end of the gun over the fitting on the arm and pump away until you see grease coming out of from in between the bushing and the arm. Do not pull out that fitting.

Take it to an oil changing place and have them do it. They have the equipment. Your hands remain clean.
