rear disc brakes suspension sqeaks
I don't know if you 7th gen guys have rear discs or not so I figure I'll go out on a limb with this one...
I installed rear discs that I robbed off a 97 del sol on my 98 ex over christmas and put 99-00 civic si e-brake cables and brake lines on them (since the delsol units were cut sigh)
anyway, I figured the suspension would settle after a week or so...but no...I still get the "scricky scricky" sound when I go over bumps...I know what joints are making the noise as I've sprayed WD-40 on them all systematically until it went away but the WD-40 doesn't last long and it comes back...not cool.
anyone else done this swap or something similiar and had a problem like this?? any suggestion on how to fix it?? thanks...

some high temp Lithium grease should do the trick, pick some up at an auto store. at the very least it'll last a whole lot longer then the WD-40
