Struts, spring, anti-rollbars, braces and the like.

What is the creaking sound when i turn?

Post by ryno50485 »

I have a 92 legacy n/a and whenever i go around a righthand turn, my car makes a creaking noise in the front left side. I wondered if it was the strut mounts or struts that were making the noise?

I thought the same thing, maybe struts creaking, but it turns out I did the sway bar mounts and endlinks before the struts.

The new bushings there shut up 90% of the noise in the front end. I'd start there. Its a 30 minute job if you have new endlinks ready.
