if you replaced bushings that could be the noise, and if you didn't put the noise dampeners back on the top of the springs that could be a little squeaky too

I replaced all of the suspension bushings about a year ago and it squeaks bad so i dont know if replacing your bushings is gonna solve this. Normally i crawl under there and lube up as many moving parts as possible. Thats one thing about a honda suspension, no grease fittings.

jack ait up and try to jerk the wheel around.. if it moves.... got 'em

that's what it sounds like to me....

unless of course it's just because urethane bushings DO squeak after time unless you religiously lube them

You have a lower ball joint and and a ball joint in the tie rod end. They have cotter pins in them. Lower ball joint is where the knuckle connects to lower arm. Tie rod end connects the steering rack to the knuckle.

You can add these when you install the poly bushings.
