Someone told me to get my creak to stop coming from my lower control arm bushing I should get some 100% silicone and put it just on the exterior of the joint where the rubber is deteriorated. Is this smart? I have tried lubrication but then I was told that it just attracts more dirt and pebbles and so then I spray washed the joint but it still creaks especially after being on the highway. What is the best thing to do until I can have it replaced? Thanks, Scott
