after driving through some high water the next day my explorer began squeaking around the front end, i havent been able to find any zerk or grease fittings any body have any ideas? thanks in advance mark miller


sounds like factory ball joints w/ torn boot . or worn shocks.

or dirt washed into sway bar bushings or something caught in suspension bushings (depending on what year = depends on what style)....

What lubricant would you recommend? I am probably the poster that suggested WD-40. I suggested it because I used it on the sway bar bushings on my '98 and it solved the problem, didn't come back for almost a year. I haven't noticed any deteriation of the bushing since then either.
