Yeah, I had the squeak. I'd even hear it getting in and out of the car lol. But that'* gone now. I don't know what the heck they did, but I never had any noise before except the rack noise.

The bearing is part of the mount, but not the whole part. The bearing is a separate part of it, or at least was for previous years. I haven't done the front struts yet.
