My suspension creaks really badly usually after towing my caravan and much more so if the weather is warm and dry. Any ideas as this driving me mad! |

Have you tried spraying some WD40 around the noisy area? |

Yes tried this but it doesn't last? It's that bad it turns heads as you go down the street! What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger!

Be interested to find out the cause of this as this happens to my RRS as well on hot dry days |

Generally, a creaky rear end is hub bushes.

It seems to be the front end as well Mikey. Any ideas for this?

ARB bushes/links seem to be guilty of creaks on the front, along with lower wishbones |

Thanks Mikey. What are your thoughts on poly bushes? What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger!

I fully polybushed a D3 once. Personally, I didn't like the way it drove. To bouncy, and a bit harsh. Also had an odd habit of lurching when stopping from low speeds.
