You see if they need to be tighened by tighening them!
Don't put lub on these bushings. These are rubber vulcanized onto steel. The move by lettting the rubber twist, so there is no sliding going on. I am suspicious that your bushings have torn if they make the noise that you describe, and if so, lubrication could make things worse, but maybe quieter.
The urethane bushings are not saab parts. The point of these is that they deflect less than rubber, and this allows the steering geometry to not deflect with the loads of corning, braking and acceleration. The NG900 and 9-3's have steering that has lots of problems and the euethane may cost less than Saab parts and will improve the mushyness of the stock system. You have to get them from Brad at KCSAAB.com.
