Is it a squeak or a clunk? More details are needed.

It's probably the column. It's been known to happen on the 240s. They just get old and start making random noises.

oh well too many other things I'd rather spend my money on....hey since you seem to know a lot about cars what do you think would be a good setup for suspension? I'm looking to start upgrading but wasn't sure all that I need or should buy....
