Hey 6gers,

Trying to figure out what's going on with my steering. Have never worked on suspension or steering, so I'm not real sure where to start.

Have a pretty bad creaking sound coming from the steering. Creaks when I turn the wheel at low speeds. She just sounds sold. Any ideas?

Worn out strut mount bearings can do that noise too.

Have someone hold a screwdriver to different parts of the car and up to their ear as you move them. The metal in the screwdriver will amplify the noise as you turn the wheel for them to hear.
