Do they make it less squeaky? Me thinks that would be a nice option!

Default Put poly's in the front of the LCA only and stock TT in the rear of the LCA

poly's in the rear only in you want to replace them every 6 months or so :-)

Default Yup - if you look at the design........

you'll notice the factory "puck" is surrounded by a metal sleeve. There is also no rubber than extends above the top or bottom surface of the LCA. The Poly's are just the opposite - they have no metal sleeve and the poly material extends above the top and bottom surface of the LCA. The Lip starts to erode and then they simply self destruct. BAD VERY BAD. So - save yourself the hassle and put in new stock ones. TT's are the stiffest around - next to VWMS - which are no longer available........
