Default sway bar noise!

So i have an 02 SS, and i put a set of Spohn swaybars on it about a month ago. The instructions said to put the supplied grease on the bushings. I did that, but now its squeaking bad now and is coming from where the bar is mounte on the chassis in the front, and where the rear bar is mounted to the rearend. Is this normal? Is there anything i can do quiet it a little bit?

Did it just now start squeaking, or was it that way after they were put on?

I'm sure there is, but I'm not sure what. I'm assuming they're the polyurethane bushings. All the bolts nice and tight?

the ones that im talking about dont have grease fittings, so should i unbolt them, slide the bushing off, grease them, then put them back on? Thanks for all yall's help so far.

That should work, but it is a pain having to do that on a regular basis.
