Rep Power: 294 the camber kit bushing was probably tightened before the car was on the ground. I had the same problem. you need lo loosen the bushing, lower the car, then tighten it really good. it's the bolt that attaches the camber kit to the rear drum.

Rep Power: 0 mine does that too. i have the ingalls kit. i think the big reason it squeaks is that the bolt is moving up and down in the hole. if you look at the stock piece you will notice that the nut is welded to the arm, and the other kits come with the nuts seperate. i have tought about trying to weld the nut the arm. should do the trick.

the stock arm has a rubber bushing which is not as stiff but does not ever need to be lubricated...
