Squeaking from the rear driver’s side

This squeaking just started happening going over speedbumps. No air ride. Thinking it may be bushings, any ideas are appreciated!

Get you a can of wd40 gel lube and hit every bushing you can see. Usually a squeak would be from rubber.

I used a silicone lubricant and sprayed all that i could find, still squeaking. Would the gel lubricant possibly work better? I’ll grab it if so

Update: this is caused by the bushing for the Hellwig Rear Sway bar, spraying silicone-based lubricant on it while it was installed did not fix it. I uninstalled it, re-greased it with heavy duty grease and reinstalled and the squeak is 90% gone for now.

They could be in cahoots with Hellwig
