After finding one rear bushing had failed, I replaced all of the rear bushings with a new Elephant re-greaseable polybronze bushing kit (including the shafts). The rear suspension still squeaks (not the front) I was under the impression that the Elephant bearings would cure the squeaking.
What else is there that could be sqeaking? Nick |

Nick I would like to know what is going on as well as I am about to order the rear bushings. I just installed the front bushings and everything is cool. You should give ER a call and see what they say. |
