- Wed Jul 29, 2009 9:17 pm #134115 sounds like you need to use some grease. one of the bushings might be dry and need some love.. you can buy silicon spray grease at any aoto parts store. i have some and works really good... just spray it on any movoing part of the suspension...

- Thu Jul 30, 2009 12:09 am #134147 im not sure its bushings. its like a loud metal on metal sound. i went to town on the underside with a can of WD-40 for now

- Thu Jul 30, 2009 12:13 am #134149 wd-40 wont work... its not a lubricant for bushings... or any kind of moving parts. if its a clunk noise, check you shock tower bolts.. makes sure its all tight. and the top bolt to your shock... might be somthing loose underneith... look for weair on parts. if it sounds like metel on metal look for dents or markings of contackt...

- Sun Aug 02, 2009 5:19 am #134902 Does it happen when braking?

I actually have something similar to this on my '92 DX. Front passenger wheel, don't know about yours but mine is definitely a metal-on-metal, rotational sound. By that I mean, I hear it once every rotation of the wheel. And as for mine, when I lightly apply the brakes, it stops. Bum rotor maybe?

- Sun Aug 02, 2009 5:23 am #134903 Check on the backside of the rotor, inbetween the rotor and the metal shield behind the rotor. Sometimes a lil rock will get stuck in there and squeek. Its happened to me many of times.
