1967 Firebird Covt. Drivers front side screechs when I hit certain dips or bumps in the road.Only happens on certain dips or bumps in the road. Does not happen all the time. Its a really loud screech. Cannot seem to locate the source. Any help appreciated.
I had a bushing on my control arm on a 73 formula deterate an when the suspension compressed fully it made a horrible screeching sound. Replaced the bushing and sound gone... It was on the front driver side too. Do a visual on the driver side inspect your bushings and greased joints
look for rubber hanging out any of those bushing, the lower control arm kinda suck to see so look close. also make sure your sway bar bushing and end links are not worn out. have someone bounce the car up and down while you try and see where the noise is coming from...good luck!
When I installed my new sway bar I didn't lube the frame mounts, and had squeeking issues. Finally figured out it was the sway bar mounts after looking at the Energy Suspension web site instructions where it tells you to lube those things. I put some teflon grease on them and no more squeeks!

Poly bushings, including "polygraphite" should always be lubed when installed.
