Hey everyone,

My car has started to squeal very loudly when the steering wheel is being turned left or right. Bumps also seem to make it squeal. The noise is coming from the front of the car. I don't think its the power steering because it seems to work fine. Could it be the shocks?

The car is a 1994 Z28 with QA1 adjustable drag shocks and Eibach drag springs in the front. Thanks.

Carlos

 

If the squeal is failry high pitched, and continues at all times for an extended period when you have pressure on the steering wheel to turn, its most likley related to the power steering system. If you had bad ball joints, it would be closer to a groaning or creaking sound, than a squeal.... realizing of course that all these terms are totally subjective and open to interpretation.
