Full suspension refresh
So my 92' with 250k miles squeaks every time I go over a bump. It started in the front now the back, sounds just like those "old car squeaks" so I want to do a full suspension refresh.
I already have front LCAs in the plans, but I want to swap everything for new ones. What should I look for? I'm not too familiar with the suspension geometry and what I should replace.
Should I get new wheel hubs too?
Thanks!

Start with the basics. Control arms and bushing, check tie rod ends, struts, springs, strut mounts. Give your motor mounts a look over and make sure they're all in acceptable working order. Replace your sway bar links.
I wouldn't be too concerned with your hubs. You can jack up each individual wheel and see if the bearing has any play. if it doesn't I wouldn't worry.
