whats a donkey the squeaks sound like?

anyway there should be grease fitting on your upper/lower balljoints,tie rod ends and your steering linkage. there should also be fittings on your u-joints on the driveshaft.

If it's squeaking then the hcances are your control arm bushings are making the noise or the spring rubbers are history. It will be easy to tell though because the old front end parts should have fittings on them for grease.

A donkey doesn't squeak, they bray. You know Hee Haw. I went to Autozone and I got some poly grease to go in my poly bushings. It still squeaks a bit but I don't mind.
