squeaking bushings from control arms after rain.......

now that the rains are gone in so-cal, i have this constant squeaking from what i believe is from the kinetix front control arm bushings........tried wd-40, worked for a day, then heavy duty silicone spray, also worked for a day and the god-awful squeaking/moaning came back.......how bad is it? let's just say you can hear it cruising down a flat pacth of road from inside the cabin! i would hate to put back the oem arms as that will just reintroduce the negative camber problems again.......inputs please!

What does Kinetix say about that?

I would try lithium grease, but you'll have to remove the arm and regrease everthing.

haven't called kinetix.........yet........funny thing, as i was backing into garage this evening....that squeaking/moaning was there as i turned the wheel while car was not in motion, so, could it be something else as well?
oh yeah, did you ever resolved your massive rear camber issue?

That could be your tires (not in motion just turning your steering wheel).

My massive rear camber issue? huh?
