Default my front end creeks, why????

its a 99 integra ls, nuespeed springs, skunk 2 camber kit, stock struts.. It seems like its the springs, when i go over bumps slow, like coming out of a driveway it creeks alot, and when i brake or somthing that. any idea what this could be, and how i can fix it?

not really an easy/cheap permanent fix......However, You can get rid of the noises for a while by using lithium grease or several shots of WD40 inside the bushings where the metal bolts or rods meet the rubber/polyurethane.

Try turning your wheel at a dead stop and have a Buddy stick their ear inside the wheel well, while you steer back and forth, See if he can pin point where the squeak or crick is coming from, Then bust out the grease and go at it.....

Opps, My Bad......

So try Dry Turning in sand.......Or roll at slow idle and turn the wheel, hopefully your listening buddy has quick reflexes though.

im not so sure it does it when i turn, as much as slow down, go over bumps and stuff at low speeds. so i think for someone to hear where its coming from they would have to hold on to the bottom of the car and let me back out of the driveway or somthing with them under it willl you help? jk. I will just try to wd40 the hell out of all the bushings
