Default susp help.

i know this has been asked over and over again....

but i get a lot of squeaks from my suspension. its all stock except for the Ground Control adjustable springs and KYB AGX shocks, along with Ingalls camber kit with rubber bushings.

one thing ive noticed is the noise get extremely louder when its hot outside, or when the car is warmed up. theres hardly any noise the first 5-10mins of driving.

this only occur when im going over potholes or over a speedbump or driveway.

one thing i thought of is the bushings. so im thinking i should just lube everything and see if that helps.

so now what i need to know is what type of lube, and how to lube it. also if you have any other causes please post.

thanks a lot

silicone spray works pretty good. u may have to reapply it every so often though.

if u get that clank noise, it's probably the coils on the spring touching each other when it compresses. i wrapped my h&r race springs with rubber wire wrap (wound in a spiral) from the hardware store.

Will, my suspension does the same thing. It's all stock though.

I gave up on figuring it out, because it's only over speedbumps really. I come across maybe one or two a week.
