Squeaky noise in back???

Hi

I hear a squeaking noise when I am driving on slightly bumpy roads and speed humps. I went to pedders and did a suspension check. The report said that for my rear suspension the rear diff. bushes are broken and the sway bar and bushes require replacement. The front suspension inner tie rod end, sway bar and bushes need to replaced. I tried to get the rear differential bushings out but can't because the bolts are too tight and I don't know how to disconnect the diff? Also can the front suspension be the cause of the squeaking noise?

Thx in advance for ur help.

hey mate sorry to hear.
A good tip for to crack bolts is to use a long hollow bar over your socket or spanner.
more leverage the more force to crack.

But also avoid stripping the bolt.

I used an air compressor but it didn't work. Started to cause stripping. I even used an angle grinder on a used rear suspension I had, it took the bolt off but caused permanent damage and rust. It's pretty damn hard to take bolts that are 10 years old off! Looks like this job is no longer DIY  sad

I wouldnt mind getting a check up on my suspension as well as I too have the odd noise. Did pedders charge for the check?

It costs 14 bucks for a checkup.
