87 Civic front end squeaks

My 87 Civic has been squeaking and squeaking. It begins, early mornings, squeaking turning either direction, going (slowly) over even smallish bumps, and when stopping. As it warms up, it mainly squeaks when stopping as the front end dips a little. I've been spraying it with a lubricant, and that may have helped but didn't give me a real FIX. Any ideas? A local shop gave me a quote to change all the bushings, but that's a little pricey for me at this time. A shot of oil in the right direction might be more within my range of capabilites at this time. (spelling all okay? )

I had the same issue. Usually greasing up the bushings helps. I went to a shop and they did it for free.
