so i have the horribly annoying squeak in my front suspension. Ive tried spraying the bushings with silicone lube but im not sure what all the pieces are to spray so it has not stopped the squeak. It squeaks when i am going kind of slowly, like under 30. It does it for every single little bump. It does it when i turn the stearing wheel some times, and it does it when i push down on the drivers side front fender. It did it when i bought the car about a year ago, but i live in Washington so in the rainy months which is about half the year it didn't squeak. But now that summer is here it squeaks really badly. Ive also noticed lately that sometimes when i brake hard i hear kind of a thud. I don't know if its related or not. I have done a little looking around, and it seems like some causes of the squeak are the spring isolator rotting away, the sway bar bushings, the strut bushings, or even the ball joints on its way out. When i bought the car i was told it was the bushings and i could just spray it when silicone lube and it would stop it but im not sure what to spray so could someone help me out. Also could someone point out the different parts like the ball joint, the spring isolator, sway bar bushings, and the strut bushings, because im not sure exactly which part each of those are.
