Dear Dave,
The front and rear sway bar bushings are normally black rubber. Poly bushings can also be black.....and other colors, too, I think. I used to have poly sway bar bushings in the rear and stock rubber in the front. I can't recall any problem with squeaking sway bar bushings.
IF they are squeaking, then rather than apply zerk fittings, I would suggest, dis-assembly of the offending poly sway bars bushing and application of anti-seize, then re-assembly.
Warmest regards, Chuck Engles

Sorry but now I am confused. I checked both the front and rear sway bars and unless poly fittings are black I have rubber bushings. I assume they are the originals. Something is squeaking so what is the best course of action? Add zerks or replace?
