Default Constant Squeeking in front passenger side

I thought it was a control arm bushing but i got new adj CA's and its still doing it. As a matter of fact it has gotten worse. WHen you take of or stop you get a squeek. Only whne moving. Any ideas? shock bushing maybe? its loud enough to hear in the cab with the ac on full blast.

I would compare it to the sound an old mattress makes.

Check your sway bar disco bushings, Mine will squeak like that from time to time.

I wouldn't think they would be bad already, but check your tierods. My ex's 06 mustang did the exact same noise your describing, turned out the tierods just needed greased.

But our wonderful JK's dont have greasable fittings on the tierods...Thanks Chrysler!

maybe shock bushings? spray some WD-40 on one bushing at a time untill you find it. swaybar bushings, swaybar link bushings, upper coil seat....anything you can see with a bushing. good luck

Have someone bounce up and down on the bumper while you check all of your bushings from underneath.
