Need help narrowing down noise in front end...


Recommended Posts

99 Z71 NBS...Sometimes when turning left I get a creak...not really a pop but a creak..Never hear it while going over bumps or turning right.


Best way I can describe it is if you were to over tighten something and apply pressure to it, it creaks.


Also when it makes this creak, I can feel it in the floor board through my feet. Sounds like it may be coming from the front center-ish or passenger side of the truck.


It's had new upper control arms and bushings, new upper and lower ball joints, a new passenger side hub, and I've greased the piss out of every thing that I know of that might creak.


Any ideas on what can make a creaking while turning?

When taking out the passenger cab mount bolt it was very hard and made the creak I've been hearing. The bolt was also very tarnished compared to the others as well as being the only tough one to get out. Going to clean up the bolt and put it back in with some threadlock and hopefully clear up the creak. Will update with results incase anyone else runs into a mysterious creak.
