Squeaking, creaking, what?
I don't know if this is suspension related or tranny/engine mount related so I put it in this section.
Ok so lately while driving the car I've been hearing this creaking. It sounds like its coming from the front passenger side suspension...
If I go WOT the car nose goes up and again you hear the creak. Sometimes it sounds like its coming from right UNDER the car which what made me think it could be the transmission mount...
If I step on the brakes the rear of the car goes up and the front goes down, and at this point you can hear the noise coming from the front.
Sometimes when shifting between drive and park or reverse to drive you can hear the creak...
I did some searching and found a thread where the person sprayed the bushings with WD-40 and this cured the problem.
Pulled off the wheel, sprayed up all the bushings and let them soak for a few hours... Same issues with no change.
Anyone have any idea what might be going on? If you need any more details let me know.
I'm hoping we didn't damage anything leaving the car jacked up...
Couple of things to note:
-93' SC300 135k
-Tanabe Springs (Car made no noises before or after the springs were installed)
- Stock struts
- Car was jacked up for about 2 days one side

Front lower control arms. Just replaced mine with supra lca's. Problem fixed. Giant creeking sound from under the car. I pretty much poured the bushing out of the hole when I got it off my car. Couldn't even tell until then.
