On a recent trip, my wife was very irritated with the squeaking upper control arms on our Syncro, so, while my queen was napping, I purchased some WD-40 outside Tombstone, Az (only spray lubricant I could find so please don't flame me for not using the non-water displacing ZupaDupaLube) and sprayed a little on the bushing area, on both sides. They continued to squeak for about 20 miles, then we didn't hear them again during the remaining 500 miles. It's been parked since then, so I don't know what their present state of discontent may be, though I do know that only the proper repairs will attain permanent results. Anyway, once free of the squeaks, my queen found ample opportunites to yell out things like, 'YOU ARE NOT GOING OVER THAT!', in lieu of the former......... Miguel
