Squeaky Front Suspension

The front right suspension on my 1994 Ford Explorer XLT 2wd has started squeaking in the past week or so. It occurs on bumps in the road, etc. The shocks are new. When I push down on the front end the noise appears and seems to be coming from a rubber piece attached the frame under the pedal area where an arm from the front right assembly attaches. Is there a way to grease this or something to stop the noise?

Squeaky Front Suspension

sounds like the front control arm bushing has wentbad . the bad news is,it has to be replaced but the good news is the thing will drive so much better you will not care. the heat from the catalytic coverter,plus time is what kills them. the other thing this helpsis with the allignment of the front end.
