Annoying squeak

Just replaced front ball joints and lower control arms. Now I have a horrendous squeak on the drivers side. Is it one of the new bushing's? I sprayed some silicone on all of them and it stopped the squeak for a couple days but its back. Any suggestions? ty

I think that there is a 3M silicon paste that works well for metal/bushing contact...that might last longer since that appears to be the issue

Hmm. I would just find out what is squeaking. And then fix it.

Pro tip: don't lube rubber bushings. There are no moving parts. If its actually squeaking...its torn and you need a new one.
