  • Squeaky Bushings

    I just put a set of SPOHN lower control arms on my 01 camaro. the problem is that I have less than 500 miles on them and there already squeaking like crazy. They were greased and torqued to spec when there were installed, so I'm at a complete loss. Any suggestions would be nice.

      If you KNOW that it's the control arm bushings, then I'd say they weren't greased properly. If you greased the base/inside of the bushings before installation, they wouldn't squeak...ever!

      I put Poly Bushings on my 1LE swaybar and greased them to hell just before bolting them up permantently, no problems or squeaks at all.

        More grease Hommie. It happens to the best of us. grease is not permanent sooner or later things need more grease. There may not have been enough put on in the first place.
