Subject:      Re: squeaky front end

Interesting... I too have the squeaky front end, but I'm only at 107K, a lot less than either of the other two vehicles mentioned. My mechanic said that the front end looked fine, other than one worn tie-rod end. He's got 22 years experience, so curious if there anything else that would make the front end squeak. I do have passenger tires on mine (soon to be replaced) could this have anything to do with it? Assuming that these front end parts that Ben mentioned do need to be replaced, what kind of labor is involved, and how expensive are the parts? Is this a do-it-yourself project or one left to professionals, i.e. any special equipment needed?

Thanks,

Troy 89 Westy
