Shot in the dark here but maybe some one might have an idea. Finally warm enough to drive around with the windows down and just so happens I notice something odd. A squeaking noise coming from the left front of my 99 Yuk 4-by over bumps. Hell, I even noticed it when I got out of the truck and of course I bounced the bumper up and down and yeah... is a squeaking/creaking noise. Now, I know that I need shocks but I am not thinking its the shock itself making that noise and the only other thing I can think of is control arm bushings???

Anyone got any ideas cause this is annoying as hell. LOL

Well with the old ones, they'll either disintegrate off, or a little WD40 and they'll come, new ones however... Be prepared to break a sweat! Just needs a little elbow grease is all. Mine took quite a bit of coersing to get onto the bar.

I see how the get replaced. Not sure if thats the problem cause I dont feel like messing with it today. LOL I'll check it out tomorrow and let everyone know what the deal was. I Aside from that, I guess all I need to do is figure out what size my front sway bar is. LOL.
