I need some help here...

I recently put Tokico (i think thats how ya spell it) coil over kit on my car. and its handles great now (BTW: i have a 1996 honda civic EX). But the front left coil over is squiking, and its really annoying. I got outta my car and pushed down on the side of the car, and made it squik, i did the same on all sides of the car, and its just up in the front left. What is wrong with it?! doesn it need lubrication or what? Really frustrating! Gar!


plz, any help would be appreciated...and yes i'm new to these forums *waves* sup ya'll!

sounds like the upper mount is squeaking...or..the two little rubber discs that go in there...ummmm...mine squeaked on my Teg and i tried to make it stop...including disassembling it and seeing if i did soemthing wrong...and i didnt..it eventually quit after it wore a lil....so i think after a lil driving....it should be alright....or you could tear it apart and make sure those two little rubber discs are in the right way....who knows....

I gave it a shower in WD40 today, i havn't drivne on it yet. I alos got my stablizer bars today too, so tommarow we'll see if those too things did anything. I could also swap out all the rubber parts for, umm, i think it was polyeurothane. but what really gets me, is that the onlyu one thats doing it is the upper left one :(

i wouldn't have sprayed wd 40 on bushings. it makes all the dust collect there. also polyurethane bushings are great if u are concerned with handling, but over bumps they are a pain in the royal rear. trust me cause i have them, and i have the stock tire sizes.
