if your suspension squeaks or kreaks, listen to this, itll save you some time....

mine squeaked for a long time, like a year, after a drop and camber kit. if it squeaks for you try lubricating your bushings in the camber kit, and rear knuckle and you may save some money. I spent 200 bucks replacing the rear knuckle bushings, which didnt fix the problem. then just this morning, i decided to spray some pb blaster(penetrating oil) on all my rear end bushings, and low and behold, squeak is gone(finally). anyway, try lubing for squeaks before spending money, time, and many hours of frustration.... it may solve your problem...

I got the squeek in the back too. Its my lower control arm bushing, its ripped up pretty bad. Your problem may be different then mine, but lube was just a quick fix... but to really solve my problem, I'd have to replace the bushings, which honda charges an insane amount for... its been getting really bad lately and driving me nuts when I dont grab my faceplate. Anyways, no1 does this replacement themselves because the bushings need to be pressed in, and your not going to get them in yourself without a few tools and a lot of thinking. Anyways, if your squeek comes back, I suggest you take it to a mechanic (not honda) and have him replace the bushings.

I did this on my rsx-s except I used all purpose general grease instead

beware not to use oil-based grease, it will swell up and cause the bushings to deteriorate. Good fix though

triz, i actually had this done on my lower control arms, thinking that it was the noise i was hearing, and still had the squeak, and came to find out its the rear camber kit bushings, i just replaced one of them with an spc kit, and it got rid of the squeak on that side, if u have this problem, just get a new camber kit, if its the lower bushings on the control arm, its costly, i had it done at my local shop after buying the bushings from honda, not expensive, and cost me like 200 bucks for both sides
