hey guys -
again..i have'nt been on here in a really long time. just been busy with work
But i've got a prbolem

i installed my RSb about 4 months back, which i got from Reggie.
and last month the driver side started making this loud scrathing/squeaking noise. so i went to pepboys, paid $35 bux to get it lubed cuz i didnt have the time or energy to do it myself.

n now a week later it started again.

any suggestions? cuz i hate the noise n i'm about to put my stock one back on

Weird man. Are you sure the bushings are on correctly?

I know I had to re-tighten mine after a few months, but never had any squeaks/noises. Using a good synthetic lube will last much longer too. I'd say take it back to Pep Boyz (with your receipt) and have them look at it again, since you recently had it done.

Yeah man use only White Lithum Grease, and use some plumber tape.
Wrap the TRD RSB wit plumber tape and then apply Lithum Grease.

Lithium grease is good. I used marine grease (water doesnt affect it), or you could use mobil synthetic grease.
