SAVAGE420 Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Bushings, bearings. GREASE THEM ALL!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsinar Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Mine's doing the same, but not as bad, I greased all the fittings I could find, and got under the edge of the ball joint boot with a needle fitting, It helped, but it still squeaks some.

jsinar Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 Update... I went to get on mine today and it was as bad as the OP... Found the source. Pull the bottom bolts out of your shock mounts, clean the metal tubes good and slather with some grease. I always use the green Lucas grease since its waterproof. The only thing you can hear now is the shocks working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spurdy Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 I wouldn't use grease, it will hold dirt, sand, debris etc. Grease doesn't provide adequate lubrication if it is full of grit. Try something that isn't sticky like graphite. Just my 2 cents. SP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
