Creaking Rear Suspension

Post by John Fish »

What causes the wedge 200 series suspension to creak on the left rear?

It can be a number of things. The rear anti-roll bar drop link is a common cause, although it can be any number of other suspension components.

Mine creaks something chronic, particularly on speed humps.

I was told ARB, ARB link and trailing arm bushes could cause that creak. I've just finished completely poly bushing the whole car and it still does it. Only thing it leaves is the shocks now, so when I lower it with some nice konis we'll find out if they were to blame!
