        A friend of mine said you could try silicon spray.  Make sure it's not =
petroleum-based, or has any petroleum byproduct in it, or it'll munch on =
the bushings.  I have the same problem with my car, only it sticks a =
little bit, too :(.
I'll have to rebuild them soon, but I'll try anything to put that off a =
bit longer!

(whoops, resending this since my last one was sent
   with a phony email address)

  What can I lubricate my sticky suspension with? I'm
guessing the rubber grommets are just old. They still
work fine, but they shriek like the devil. It gets amplified
by the springs, and it just sounds awful.

  I need to lubricate them somehow, suggestions? It's just
rubber on steel, but it has to be something that will
get in and around and hit the source of the problem.
