Stop This Squeek!

I'm a reasonably capable home wrench.......I thought. A few weeks ago, I thought I was going to R&R the steering idler bushing. Without a lot of unnecessary background story, I removed the two giant bushing bolts for the control arm (RH side). That proved to be a real challenge while trying to get it put back together. With a tranny jack and significant pry bar, I finally got the suspension back together. Unfortunately, I now have a very loud and annoying squeek in that location. It's mostly when the wheel is pointed straight. If you push down on the fender, it will squeek enough to scare the chipmunks out of our house foundation. If I grab the lower control arm, you can feel it vibrate such that it seems to be the source for the squeel. All bolts are tight, so I liberally sprayed WD40 everywhere there was a bushing or where something moves. No effect. Any ideas?
