Question daizen bushing noise, I think....

about 2-3 months ago i had the daizen bushings installed on my UCA's and my LCA's. it has made a squishy clunking type noise when i go over speed bumps, railroad tracks or uneven roads since the install. today i had my mechanic buddy put his "ears"(a headphone machine to help pinpoint noises) and the noise that i have been hearing are at the LCA's. does anyone have daizen bushings and get the same noises i do, is this normal? would regreasing them help (not sure how much grease was used during install)? if it was just regreasing would i have to loosen everything or would it be able to grease them installed? i am having my mechanic with the "ears" take a look at it on tues but wanted any insight ya'll can give. thanks CL

Daizen bushings are notorious for making noises..Regrease them like crazy and the problem won't come back for a very long time...
