Hey guys, my GT500 is starting to squeak and rattle a little bit. The vibrations I think are mostly due to removing the cats and the additional resonance, I can track that down. For the suspension sqeaks what do you guys recommend for lube? I don’t want to attract and hold dirt, but the squeaking is getting old.

Am I really the only one with squeaks showing up?

Try some white lithium grease in a spray can. You can try running it through a brushless car wash with a bottom blast to try and clean it back off (if you suspect it’s attracting dirt) periodically and then reapply.

Believe it or not, I haven't detected any squeaks from the suspension on my 2019 Bullitt yet and I’m at 4.5K miles. I did upgrade the RLCA bushing to bearings and added vertical links with delrin bushings and poly differential bushings. Maybe that has helped keep any squeaks at bay for the time being.
