Default Squeeky CRX

Check it out, i threw some tokico blues with some sweet *** tenzo r purples (2.25) , and as soon as the car left the jack the rear passenger side would screech every time i hit the tinyest bump, like my tire was rubbing. but it aint the tire. my guess is the shock is fuct. I've searched through threads and found no help. any suggestions would be totally sweet. Thanks

I don't think you would have blown the shock that quickly, probably the springs are the ones crying. You can test the shock though by this quick and pain-free method - get out of the car, push down on each corner pretty hard and let it come back up and stablize. If it stops quickly it's fine; if it's real bouncy it's blown.

me too, do you have camber kits? It might be your camber kits, I had a similar problem with my gf's lude. After installing the springs and cambers, i set the car down and started to drive it around to see how it was. I was hearing squeeky noise from the front of the car and rear. I thought it was the springs untile I found out it was my camber kits... Did a few DIY to it and now it's squeek free!
