Fbody squeaks

When I drive my SS I notice that there's little squeaks inside the car, but I can't find out what it is. Do any of you guys know and if so do you know how to get rid of it??

Do you have solid rod ends on any suspension components? or new bushings or poly urethane anything? check your grease points.

Do you hear the noise when you drive over uneven pavement? It is most likely the rear trailing arm bushings, spring cups, or tq arm bushings.

Yeah I hear it when I drive over bumps. I also hear a pretty big squeak in the rear when going over a speen bump. Sounds like my rear end is going out soon

A big squeek when going over speed bumps eh? Does it make the same noise when you push down on the back of the car?

Could be shocks. Their gonna make a squeek instead of a rattle tho.

A STB and SFC's make a world of difference for little interior rattles and squeaks, like everyone else says lube the bushings and get some SFC's.

I would definitely get some SFC but if it's a squeak that sounds like it's from rubber or something it's probably your bushing on your Lower Control Arms...When I had my car up on a lift I looked at them and they were dry as a bone...A good set of aftermarket ones are around $100 and not to mention they are stronger but they have grease zerks on them so lubing them up will be simple...
