Bushings Creaking?

Had my rear LCA bushings replaced about 6 months ago, and they were lubed up quite well and all before being placed in. After about a month this incredibly annoying creaking sound started to happen (since the bushings are polyurethane) and I was wondering if there's any way to get rid of it? Perhaps a way to lube up the bushings without having to replace them?

The sound is just...annoying, haha. Hasn't affected how the car drives at all.

are they oem or energy suspension etc....it is said that the red energy suspension bushings you get sounds from but im thinking maybe you could lube up your bolts? mainly id put some auto grease on the bolt and on the metal sleeve of the bushing where it has contact from metal to metal this should quiet things down

i had the same problem with my fron ones i just put a thin layer of auto grease on the out side of the bushing and any metal that is touching it.
