I had my trailing arm bushings replaced with es bushings, the rear is less clumsy but I thought thats where my squeeking was comming from. My buddy replaced my rear shocks/struts w/ about a year ago with stagg shocks (I know they are far from the best). I think now I remember thats when squeeking started. I had him do the mounts a few months later and still chickens,
Is there a way the bushings on the top of the shock are installed wrong? Ninty nine percent sure they are tight and it doesn't feel like a broken shock. Sounds like the squeeking comming from the top of the shock at low speed. I am going to have a mechanic check it, what should I look for? Thanks in advance.

Wouldn't that be temporary?

Makes sense ty. Can a bushing be upside down or installed wrong?

Use a screwdriver and put the tip on the control link in the middle of the axle and bounce the car...If you will feel the vibration then you have found the chickens!!!!

any bolt at a pivot point that goes through a metal sleeve within a bushing should be lubed. the bolt and sleeve rub on each other and can sound real bad when it rusts. the worst I have seen was on a friends Jeep Liberty...

Where the bolts that go through the bushings torqued to spec while the rear axle was under load?
