so I have a really bad squeak when I go over bumps. I know that my CVs need to be replaced, but I'm wondering what common bushings would need to replaced as well. This is front and rear. I have rallied my car pretty hard, and am looking for some upgrades. im a noob so please advise.

thanks

Sway bar bushings can get dry and make cat-like noises...sometimes (when i feel like it)take everything off before the rainy season and lube all the bushing in the suspension after i wash all the mud/dirty/muck off of everything under the car. lift you car on jacks and look for worn or just dry bushing on the sway bars particularly, that's where your suspension flexes the most (along with the control arms).

Thanks.

I know the sway bushings are pretty toasted as well. I was wondering if the main pivots on the A arms are going to be worn too, and how hard those would be to replace.
