That's been my experience with poly sway bar bushings, anyway. I had a set that squeaked enough that it really annoyed me, and the only way to get rid of the squeak was to remove the bushings, re-grease them, and then re-install them. In my book, for a street car, that's asking too much. I must not have been the only one as it seems common today that poly sway bar bushings come with grease fittings.
Good news and bad news from BW. Bad news is need to remove powerflex for regreasing. Good news is, he thinks that they should not need regreasing unless it becomes noisy which it shouldn't...

I am just going to go for it, gonna order meyle HD tension strut and powerflex bushing for the LCA.

Thank you everyone!

Will post update on how it goes in 3-4 weeks when parts are installed.
