Default squeaky clutch after cable bushings?

hey guys i just put in my corsport cable bushings in and i must say, i couldnt be happier with them. My car feels like a true coupe now with the sts and cable/base bushings.

but i noticed, after i put the cable bushings, that every time i step on the clutch it makes a squeaky noise. I am just wondering if this is a problem or not. I am positive it never did that in the past. Everything seems fine, as far as performance and driveablity.

Do you think i should lube up the bushings more? if so, with what? spray some wd40 over them? thanks in advance.

those bushings have nothing to do with your clutch system squeeking.

hmmmm i was thinking i must have messed something up when i installed the bushings. guess not then.

its not really a big deal, i usually have my music blaring so i dont notice it. i just wanted to know if it was important.

mine started squeaking w/ no mods. the squeak is comming from under the hood, mine is the part that runs thru the transmission to actuate theclutch (not sure what the part is called) i bet some white lithuim grease would cure mine.

I notice from time to time I'll get a squeeky clutch pedal too. I found I can make it squeek or not depending on how I depress the pedal. I'm too lazy to go grease it right now, plus its like 20 outside right now.
