whats that friggen squeek?

[Luthman]

in my 88 toyota IFS- turn the wheel and go over any bump and it sounds like I am ripping apart a cat.

any clues as to which bushing I need to replace in the front end? I assume this is common

thanks,

Luth

it's the steering stops rubbing the lower control arms . . . a quick google search brought up these threads form another site

Like Corax said... Smear grease all over the steering stops and it'll go away. Untill you figure that out it can be a real annoying noise eh

Cheers

Grease and or replace the plastic cover on the head of the bolts to reduce metal to metal screeching.
