    I jus recently changed my shocks(nitro drop shocks 2 ) in the front and rotor and pads. On my 88 pickup .all worked fine for a couple days until I went up this really bumpy road today. Then it started to squeak after that.what could be causing this? Squeaks only when on bumpy roads. When I push down on the front of truck it also squeaks. I have a feeling its on the passenger side but not sure what's causing it

    I'd crawll under it and check to see if the shocks have loosened up or if you broke something

    Sounds like a dry bushing try wd40 that will take the squeak out of your squat

    Ever grease the ball joints, tie rods, etc?

    Grease things one at a time, (spray lube under the boot or around things that don't have zirks) and let us know when it stops.
