Squeaky Jeep
« on: August 31, 2009, 06:41:50 PM »
Hey guys/gals, My jeep is squeaking quite a lot and its been getting worse and worse, sounds to be coming from the front left tire area. I have both a suspension and body lift. Should this be a concern or is it just obnoxious? do you have any remedies. Thanks!

grease all the joints with a zerk fitting you see under the jeep. that should shut it up a bit.

Leaf Springs, and its definitely not the breaks, it only squeaks when I go over bumps.

Sounds like leaf squeak or spring bushings squeaking then.
