Horrid suspension, cured by lithium grease... but why?
This is strange. My suspension is HORRIBLE. Clunks, rides like crap, makes a lot of noise... just sucks. I sprayed the front swaybar bushings with lithium grease, and for about 2-3 days, EVERYTHING IS QUIET, and it rides a LOT better.

Why??!? The bushings look like they're in good shape. I'm guessing that since they seem to be the cause, I'll need to replace them...but my question is why? I don't understand how bushings that APPEAR to look fine are making so much noise, and why some grease would quiet them so much?
