    itpphoto What just happened ?

    Hello Everybody,

    OK, when I re-did the front end I replaced the complete lower A-Frames. They were very tight going in, I did not lube them as I had heard stories about lube destroying the rubber.
    Anyhow, I did tighten the bolts before lowering when new and after reading another post I loosened the bolts, jacked it up and let it back down. I also sprayed the bushings with RuGlyde (NAPA) which is a safe lube for rubber and drove with slightly loose bolts respraying a few times.

    I still have a really loud and annoying squeak from both sides up and down.

    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Thanks, Frank
