You need ads much lubrication as possible. Just cover everything in it. Mine rears never made any noise.

Dean Saff,
mate, do you have a pic of the orginal bushes? I'm not sure if mine have been replaced and I'd be interested to see if they look the same.

Cheers for all advice lads.. 
What I thinks strange people deem these bushes as dangerous yet they still sell them??
I will go ahead and fit standard ones tried and tested, theres too many people that would say I told you so..not worth the risk...

I read in an article that some police forces using 4x4's used to have theirs replaced every 6 weeks, just to be sure.
I believe the bush that gets all the abuse and torque applied is the near side one. Had that one (only) changed on mine.
