    Default camber kit squeaks...

    is it normal to have squeaky suspension after a camber kit installation? not the ball joint type but the mountings attaching to the upper control arms. since the installation they've been gettin squeakier and squeakier....
    advice? experience?

    what camber kit do you have? With poly bushings, you NEED to regularly grease them with white grease in order for them to stop squeaking. Some people have sprayed the bushings with white lithium grease first and then seal it it with marine grease which is waterproof with good results.

    hmm im not sure if the EV900 kit has grease nipples or not... if it does then I would reccomend energy suspension formula 5 prelube to use as a grease... that stuff basically never wears out.
