When I push down on the back end of my car easily I here a squeek, creak, from the right rear spring area. Also. starting yesterday, when im at a stop and just let off the brake I here a creak. Is this maybe a bad spring or something else???

 

insulation bushing on top of spring, LCA bushings, sway bar end link bushings.....Or weak shock...

Could be one or all...

 

OK. Got under my car today and the sound is coming from my right rear LCA. I can just easily grab it and move a little to make the noise and its mainly where it bolts up to the axle. Can I just remove that bolt on the back of the LCA to check the bushing? Will it "slam" down when I take it out? or is this probably just a bad LCA?

 

If its a stock LCA, then the bushings are 9 years old and prob cracked... You could just replace the bushings or better yet, purchase an aftermarket set thats a solid piece...

Everyone has their fav... I just bought a set of Lakewoods from Summit back in 2001... Cost was 89.00.... They are factory replacement made of square tubing, poly bushings, and non adjustable... I like them..

 

wut does lca mean

 

Lower Control Arm.....

 

The other option is to turn up your radio and forget all about the squeeks and creeks... Or you could just start replacing stuff...

 

OK. I took off the RR LCA and just sprayed the hell out of the bushings with WD40, then reassembled it and no more squeeky, creaks,etc...However, I think this is only a temporary fix and Im sure the noises will come back after a while.

 

Put grease around the bushings.
