it might be those because from what i know they have never been changed and the car has 115000 miles on it. how long should it take to replace them?

My rear passenger side squeaks over bumps and it annoys me a lot. I sprayed the shock and it stopped for about a day. I used WD40 and didn't expect it to last long. Anyone know what I can use until I get the money to replace the shock?

i have a vert and my squeaks like nobodies business over bumps and such. ESPCIALLY during winter. a silicon based lubricant would be 10x better than wd40. gravity will naturally pull wd40 off the bushings. something silicon based will hold longer. i need to do mine.
best theing to do is have someone.. big or strong enough to push down on the back corner and around the trunk lid of the car. while you under it. (not jacked up) and just listen for the squeaks.
