Is there a cure for squicks under the Burb?
I need to stop the squicks (sp) under my Burb but would like to know if there is anything you can do besides replaceing the bushings?
 It is starting to drive me a little  .

heh, WD40 is a temporary fix to fix squeaks, but its easier than changing bushings. I have no choice but change em, they are rotted out and gone!! There is my fair share of 2x4 lumber shimming things into place.

If they are rubber bushings, silicone spray/paste. But silicone won't reduce metal squeaks like wd40 or other petro lubes will.

Put dry graphite into a solution of alcohol and put it into a syringe, with no needle, and inject it in the wear area. The alcohol will evaporate and leave the graphite. Its an old trick.
