This squeaking noise has been going on for a while, i just put new skunk 2 suspension, springs and rear lower control arms and still makes the same noise. It makes a squeaking noise almost seems metal on metal? Its an 88 civic hatchback and it only makes it on the rear right suspension.

What are some ideas for the cause of that noise now that we can cancel out a few major things?

thanks!

 

could be the bushings in the new lca's...!!!

 

The noise was still there with the old ones!

 

have you checked your rear wheel bearings...!!!

 

Plus cheack the rear trailing arm bushing. Mine took a Sht and made alot of Clanking noise.

here ya go

 

Good luck finding just the rubber piece. According to Honda it is a Unit!

 

Most likely, as mentioned, rear trailing arm bushings. Just go to Honda and buy a new set. They run about $60.

 

wheel bearings are good!
i think its the trailing arm, its my only thing left to do. But its a different noise than clanking, its like squeak almost. I can find them individually on ebay for cheap il just do that, and see what happens. Thanks!

 

Yea really, just take of your rear wheel and look at the rubber in the trailing arm. Spray some saopy water and feel it for cracks. I bet its dead. Mine was.... Is!

 

Maybe il do that and see if it kinda goes away, if it does than il know its the bushing...

 

yea. I dont feel to safe in my Civic right now! LOL! I am going to the Junk yard soon. I hope the DA integ fits.
