haha right! my $20 ebay speakers are getting to be quite, uh, annoying! lol. they sound like they are out of an old car with a record player.

yeah forsure ill be getting it taken care of. im trying to decide if i should go through my emissions test with it leaking so less exhaust will be coming through therefore less emissions lol. not to mention i only have the cat on right now. no piping behind it. ill need to get that sorted too...

im thinking its the bushings on the passenger side for the A arms. i replaced the strut and it still squeaks so that's me reasoning.

My '88 B2200 (2WD) has had front suspension squeaks 3 times in the 20 years I've had it.

First time, I unscrewed the four upper control arm plugs and threaded in metric grease fittings (for three: I used 90 degree fittings for easier access with flexible grease gun extension), and I grease the up every few years.

Second time: bad ball joint on driver side.

Third time: bad ball joint on passenger side.

I could press down on front end and hear all these. Luckily on these trucks the ball joints are bolt-on types so easy do it yourself fix. I'm using Duralast lifetime warranty ones from Autozone, were actually in stock local store.
