I think this is the last problem to fix after this whole rash of problems ive been having with the kj. the front suspension makes a horrible groan noise when going over speed bumps, especially when cold. it sounds as if a metal part needs to be oiled or replaced but im not sure what or where to start |

Grease the swaybar bushings or spray then real good with a silicone spray. |

The two major noise causing points are the main bushings that secure the sway bar horizontally. I never needed to grease them, until this past sring and now I seem to grease them every couple of months. I think I remember a post where a member drilled a couple of zerk fittings into his bushings. That would sure be an easy way to regrease them. |

Remove the sway bar bushing and apply some grease or drill and tap it and install a zerk that way you can grease it whenever you want!! Glorious grease!!! |
