Default Squeak squeak squeak

hey guys, im new here, very informative forums. I have a 97 Accord 2 door LX, It's been squeaking over bumps for a while ( I saw the DIY thread about the bushings needing to be greased. - http://members.troublecodes.net/hond...20bushings.htm) Yesterday, it started squeaking all over the place, when i take off, when i hit the smallest crack in the pavement. It seems to do it more when im on snow and ice.

"Silicone grease will not cause harm to the bushing; Dow Corning 111 is the recommended grease."
