First i thought i was all the poly bushings .. had them all greased .. it still squeels really bad
can shocks squeel like that ? I got Koni DAs, could it be the springs sitting in their perch ?
every time i hit a little bump they squeek and squeel .. not sure if its a convertible curse, or if its something to do with my suspension :cry:

could be the springs, doubt its the shocks.
is it both sides or just one?

hard to say what it is even...
You could put rod end for everything ;) to make sure its not that.
I think its the springs though, how do you fix this.... I'm not sure, I have seen people putting a peice of garden hose over the bottom of it.

yeah I've been thinking about doing that to raise the back end a touch .. but not sure how thats gonna help the squeels
edit: oh you said the bottom :alert: thats a good idea
maybe since i got a moser rear end, the bottom perch isnt perfect and the spring moves around or something :think:

get a short piece of garden hose and use it as a stethascope while someone is pushing down on the back end, to find where the squeek is coming from. I recently did this and found that it was my rear sway bar's main bushing causing a squeek. I just dropped the sway bar, greased up the bushing, and bolted it back into place .... no more squeek :)
