agx's squeak, way to stop?
Whenever the temp falls below 50 degrees my front agx's make a squeaking noise every time I hit a bump. Is there a way to stop this or do I have a bad pair of agx's?

One of my fronts started to sqeak. I'm not going to figure it out, I'm just going to replace it with Illuminas.

Its because they are liquid filled. Once they heat up it will not make a noise.

Go with the Illuminas. Take it from someone who's been riding on AGX's for 19 months.

Are you sure it's the strut and not a bushing? Squirt some WD-40 onto the strut piston and see if the squeak stops. If it doesn't then you should look at your control arm and sway bar bushings.
