It has been cold the last couple of days, and the liberty is making crunching sounds in the front suspension area when I go over a bump. I have 36,000 miles and new 235/70/16 firestone destination All terrain tires. Shocks, ball joints, what do you think? Simply related to cold weather? Thanks |

You need to grease your front sway bar bushings. |

Don't use grease use silicone spray grease will eat up the bushings spray the sway bar bushings each time you do an oil change and no more squeaks |

People on the internetz can't read my mind. hooperswish wrote: 67Customs wrote: You need to grease your front sway bar bushings. Thanks, Is that a basic zert? No. You have to remove the brackets and pull the bushing off of the sway bar to lube them. Do them one at a time. |

I just wait for the weather to get warm again and the noise goes away by itself. |

How about the polyurethane replacements. Are these more quiet, or do they need silicone as well for quieting down? |
