Squeaky suspension. Used to be lowered on cheap coilovers.
Anyone know if there's a common suspension part that will squeak after changing the suspension? It normally happens when it's colder outside, and it happens on bumps. So when the suspension compresses it squeaks.
It used to be pretty low on no name coilovers. I put the stock springs, and new struts on it. It never squeaked when it was lowered, but there was very little suspension flex it was super stiff.
I'm pretty mechanically inclined, and could change just about anything. I just don't know if I can diagnose it.
Does it sound like some bushings? Springs? Ball joints? I should probably just do a complete overhaul, but I don't feel like sinking that kind of dough into an 18 year old integra.
It's a 1990 by the way.
Thanks in advance.

sounds like a squeaky bushing problem.
edit: pull off the wheels and look at al the bushings to see if something is torn or broken. usually when rubber sits for a while in one manner it wont be as pliable going back to another manner when it is that old

I had worn out control arm bushings that did the similar thing
