Why is my suspension creaking??

[Drakon]

I have tokico coil overs and ground controll adjustable shocks and they creak when i go over stuff. Do they need to be lubricated or are they bad?? they arent much more than like 3 years old. its lowered 2 inches btw. not too low.

its what happens with coilovers sometimes dude. I've heard a lot of complaints about it, but a solid spring seat with a rubber covered spring will make some noise...get it checked out anyway though, just to be sure.

I dont have any money, so anyone know what i could check for or if its the seat or something maybe thats just become unlubricated from me cleaning the wheel wells to much.

Don't double post. This is in technical and suspension. Post in one place please.

i needed a fast answer. i know i never look in more than 2 or 3 areas. so i figured this would speed things up. yeesh.

Dont' do it. Simple.

pdm racing offers whiteline coil wrap thats supposed to "silence noisy coils". it should work but make sure thats your problem first!

just for thought but i have reg stock springs and i creek also going over dips and speed bumbs... but after a while of driving its stops, maybe its cause its warmed up and loose? I don't know but i thought I should share. maybe mine are bad already but it only has 70k on it

i checked it and it seems like its the rubber at the top of the seat for the spring. but i duno what to do. i sprayed it with some silicone spray (tire shine) and WD40. hoping it will lube it up.
