Default Squecky Suspension

the front suspension on the drivers' side has been squecking for the longest now and i don't know what it can be. i've tried spaying wd40 where the crossmembers bolt into the chassis but it still squecks. anybody ever had this problem before?

If I had to put $20 on it, I'd say a bolt is loose and allowing a slight movement where two pieces of metal are rubbing/squeeking. Big money, big money, no wammy's STOP.

check all the bolts, check the shocks, check if the top coil of the spring is touching when the cars compressed. check of the top rubber mount is fucked.

You've got a slopped out bushing, you need to replace it.

A squirt of sort of lubricant should quiet it for a while if you don't feel like doing the work. WD40 is kerosene, not lubricant.

The word is spelled "squeak," if you can't get a dictionary then get a rope.

Since it is kerosene, and not a lubricant, I've never sprayed any on one of my gf's crotches to find out.
