I cant for the life of me figure out where the squeaks are coming from...Its definitely from somewhere in the front, and happens whenever I go over small bumps. I can replicate it at a standstill simply by pushing up and down on the front end.. Ideas?

yeah...but id replace them its not expensive and its a easy do it yourselfer..........if its squeaking that means they probably have been bad for awhile and if your driving down the interstate and one breaks.....well bend over and kiss ur ass good bye...lol...no really its dangerous get them fixed guy...if thats the problem like bill said it could also be control arm bushings...but if its bagged my money is on the ball joints

Mazda's squeak about as much as they tick. Mine did it before I bagged it, so I wasn't so worried about it. I actually named mine Tick Tick. Maybie you could go with Squeak Squeak.

I replaced my ball joints back in August when I did my bag job so I hope it's not them, but mine started that squeak a couple weeks ago. I think it's the control arm bushings. Won't know till I replace them but that's my thought.

I think Ive narrowed mine down to control arm as well..How do we sort that out? Are there grease nipples on them?
