[QUOTE="Moseley, post: 587894, member: 20098"] Technically, they shouldn't rotate on either the spring plate end or in the beam housing itself. Instead, as the suspension compresses, the bushes should just twist in the middle, but not move. However, with years of wear and possibly the consistency of available parts nowadays, it is quite common to find that after fitting, the bush is rotating on one of the above items rather than being held tightly in position. This is where the annoying squeak comes from. Solutions include using talcum powder or red rubber grease - both of these provide a bit of lubrication and will at least keep it quiet.
