When I got my sway bars installed, my rear creaked very loudly. It went away after 3 days. Now, my fronts have begun creaking. The creaking is like a rubbing sound and happens when I hit a bump. We used the lubrication that came with bars on the mounts. Anyone else experience this? What did you do to get it to stop?

I had the same problem. Its b/c the front sway bar is running up on the undercarriage sheet metal. This rubbing is located next to the left front sway bar busing. I had to get a screw driver and a hammer and carefully bend the metal up by prying it. The squeak went away after that. You have to be careful b/c you can punch throuhg the metal. I accidentally did. I covered the whole area with lithium grease. That stuff is water proof so its all good for the hole.
IF you all have any more questions let me know. PS. they are called sway bars, not anti-sway bars
