Default 88 190E Suspension Squeek

Im the proud new owner of190E that runs great, but lately ive been experiencing alot of noise from the front end. I noticed some tears in the strutt boots, and proceded to silicon them, which removed some of the noise. However, at low speeds, especially when turning, there is a noticible sqeek still. Ive inspected all of the a-frame bushings, ball joints, and steering linkage, and lubricated them all with silicon, but there is still a bit of noise. Aside from buying new bushings and ball joints, does anyone know how I could remove this squeek? Next chance I get I plan on taking a stethoscope out to pinpoint the noise exactly, so if there is a specific lubricant anyone knows of that could help, I would appreciate the input.
