Poly bushes

Just fitted rear trailing arm poly bushes before having the geometry done. Now the back end squeaks like a randy mouse. Should I give it time to bed in or bite the bullet and fit oem?

What brand did you fit?
Did you use enough copper lube?
Have fitted mine for years now (powerflex)(4 years ago or so), no squeaks.
