I have a '96 civic hatchback. Whenever I drive over minor bumps, my rear suspension would squeak. Also when I make slight-to-hard turns, I can hear something from the back grinding. What are the possible causes?

Could it be that the rear upper control arm bushings are out? Or the Rear trailing arm bushings are out?

 

trailing arm bushings are known to take a ****. u can replace them with OE from pepboys, or get the PWDJDM baller ones.

 

I have some new OEM RTA bushings that I'm gonna put in soon..but do I need new upper control arms?

 

well, I would say to just do the RTA's but since you have it apart, check and see for yourself.. If its needs a bushing, then you know.
