Default 98 Malibu front end noise

I think I've got it. Here's an idea for those of you out there with an awful squeeking/squawking noise in the front end that will only do it when it wants. Lower control arm bushings. I think this is it. I'm going to replace mine next week and we will see if this theory holds up and I will keep you all posted with the results. It will be kind of a pain, cause I have to take the conlrol arm in to a machine shop to get them to take out the old bushing and put in the new, but outside of that shouldn't be to horrible. I hope. Keep this in mind as something to look at on other models and cars concerning phantom squeeks/squawks from the front end.
