Grinding Noise

[deknight]

Whenever I go over a speed bump the front end makes a grinding noise. I am thinking it might just need to be lubed. Has anyone else had this problem? It is most noticeable when it's cold out or when I am just starting out in the morning.

Sway bar bushings

(yeahthat)

Go down to your local hardware store and pick up some silicone lubricant (if you don't already have some in your garage) and spray all the bushings - swaybar (under the radiator on the front of the frame), control arms, anything that looks like its rubber. That'll take care of it until winter comes around
