OK.



So I have developed a suspension squeak.



I have sprayed all of the bushings that I know of down with silicone lube, and tend to keep the underside well lubed anyways, but this won't go away!



It is coming from the right side, and it squeaks whenever I turn the wheel or when I hit a bump. Anyone hear of balljoints squeaking like this? Control arm bushings?



Are there any lube points I could have missed?? I am not aware of any grease zerks on the suspension...are there any ?



It almost sounds to me like it is coming from the lower control arm.........



Any ideas? The ball joints feel tight...and I don't see any Zerks on them. Any way to get some grease into them?
 
There are no factory lube fittings on the St...

The noise you are hearing is more than likely as you said, the ball joints or control arm bushings...

They make a needle fitting for the Ball joints that pierces the boot and fills it with grease...
