rear squeak

I installed my WMW 25MM Sway bar on Saturday. I am now getting a squeak from the right rear. Anyone else have this issue?

This happens all the time when the bushings aren't greased properly or used a different grease than the one we provide. If that was done right then the noise is from something else.

here is the correct grease as it's not common to find.
You use half the tube in one bushing and half in the other so you end up using it ALL.
