are you sure it is the control arms sqeaking you might have a small crack in the torque boxes & they need to be welded

i had a sqeak in the rear end of my 98 & thought it was the control arms. i did everything to track it down & finally gave up on it. then one day me & a buddy noticed it again & started hunting for it & it ended up being a brake line rubbing against a piece of the body i put some silicone spray on it & it was good to go

I'm not sure on yours but, does the bushing come in contact with the mount? You may grind a little off the outside of the bushing, not the center. Also, did you install and tighten with the tires offf the ground? If so, loosen the bolts, jack up the car, put ramps under wheels and let car down. Tighten the UCA and LCA bolts with the suspension loaded. It is probably the bushing rubbing on the outside.
