i guess this a situation where your supposed to look
in the archieves to follow the hole thread, but, if
your talking abouta4'4,6's,and 8's, its squeeks over
bumps,and while bounceing the car yourself. that is
the ball joint grease either hardening or drying out.
if you track your car, like us, the control arm
bushings wear out and make clucking noises on hard
brakeing or acceleration. it is generally the
boomerang shaped rear arm. if your mechanically
inclined, you can remove the arms and carefully remove
the dust boots and re-grease the ball joints to save
yourself about 500-700 bucks !! the bushings are not
changeable or avaliable.
