I installed new lower control arm's with the 1le bushings and now i have a groaning, creaking noise coming from that area of the car. Could i have installed them in a bind to be causing this noise?
Thanks

maybe...did you tighten the bolts with the arms loaded at normal resting height?

I have had no problems with 1LEs

 

[Mike Miller]

Probably not, because i had to raise and lower the jack under the differential to get all 4 bolts back in for the LCA's.
Since i don't have a lift i was thinking of putting the car on car ramps and looseing all the bolts and re-tightening them to see if that helped.

just jack it up by the diff and loosen, retighten...should be the same thing

Good point, don't need ramps. I'll give it a try.
Thanks, Mike
