06 Limited Liberty.. 20k miles

I ran through some mud a few weeks back, few days after that I've noticed a scrapping/rubbing noise when going over bumps, not speed bump size, little larger like small hill. in both front and rear end, seems like when the shock expenads and closes it makes noise. Is this from the mud, maybe rocks getting in their or cold weather? I've gonna go for my 24k maint pretty quick figure if there bad they'll replace them..

I lubed my front sway bar bushings too, it quieted things quite a bit, but i still get it every now and then. I think its the whole sway bar rotating in the rubber bushings on the sub frame.


I have a similar noise in the back, but i haven't figured out what that is yet, i can't tell if its trim, the rear glass, or suspension noise.

I lubed them up and I still have the noise. I am not sure the spray lube went all through to the inside of the bushing, though.

I removed my links and smeared on Wheel Bearing grease.
