Shocks will squeak like crazy. My driver side shock/strut is bad and squeaks anytime I hit a bump.

i figured thats what it was. i couldnt think of anything else really that goes up and down like that that would cause squeeking. (if there is something then cut me slack idk that much about suspensions) the squeeking is annoying though and that brings me to my next question which may end up resulting in lowering springswhen you install the lowering springs i hear you should replace shocks/struts so do is there a certain type that you replace them with, a shorter version or someting? or just normal oem ones that are new?

could be the strut mounts also.
how many miles you have?

anybody?
06-22-2010
so have you replaced the struts ever?
06-22-2010
well, then it can be a lot of things, but I would start with the struts and strut mounts.

I have not. however i've only owned it since last june, when it has 122k on it. how do i know if they've been replaced without seeing a recipt?

ya look for a band name on them but i bet they are stock and YES you need struts when you lower for the millionth time i am starting to feel bad cuz Bio's threads turning into the safely mod your 3800's thread
and you SHOULD get kyb agx but ppl have gotten by on gr2
06-23-2010
sorry i have read the safely modding your 3800 thread but havent in a while and i usually just look at the engine part and routine maintnience part.

thanks for the input by the way

Usually a squeaking or creaking sound from the front end means lower ball joints.
