Re: Suspension/Steering squeak

Well just for the shit of it i WD-40'd the piss out of ever joint, bushing, coil over, etc. on the driver wheel-well area. Put the wheel on, dropped it. Started it and moved wheels left/right and no squeak. I'll have to take it out for a ride and see if it does it. Also, be curious to see if it does it after the wd-40 runs off. If i need the one lower control arm, it's pretty cheap at only $35.00. The other lower control arm that's kind of S shaped is $200. I hope I don't need either. Doesn't appear that just the ball joints themselves are replaceable. I'd be curious to know what this recall is all about though.

Re: Suspension/Steering squeak

When a ball joint gets old and dried out it will definitely squeak. If you have pin pointed the noise to the ball joint just replace it.
