The guy at the parts store just talked to a guy at energy suspension and he suggests using marine grease on the bushings to keep them from squeaking. Says you only have to do it once too! Think I will try it. What do you all think

That sounds like standard procedure with those bushings. I recently installed some polyurethane bushings -- they came with little tubes of very stiff grease to apply to the bushings. Since I won't drive the car for a while, I don't know if the grease will help or not.

I use Redline synthetic grease at work on everything. I don't care if it's poly, rubber or whatever. It has the same water resistant properties of marine grease with added benefit of high temp ability.
