Default greasing bushings

I wanted to know when I change my rear and front struts is it effective enough to grease up the bushings on the upper control arm in place with silicone grease. I have a 2000 Honda accord and the bushings still look good but they are squeaking and I have not found anyplace that sells anything other than the stock rubber bushings for my year accord. Thanks.

check out prothane or energy suspension for bushings. althought they shouldnt be squeaking. i had 103,000 miles on my car and didnt have any squeaking. polyurethane bushings will squeak if not greased but rubber shouldnt squeak
