Subject:      Front end creeping resolved
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8

First front end chatter then creeping..

Myy T# anti sway bar is great but I have not enjoyed the extra sounds.

First a front end chatter was resolved by adding 1/8 shims under the two front bushings.

About a month ago loud creeping was heard from the front end.

I sprayed the area where the Anti sway bar and the links come together. It improved. I sprayed again and it completely went away.

I’m not sure how often I will need to lubricate the spots or if there is a better solution but that is completely quiet now.
