Help me diagnose a squeak......

[AzianStang]

It's coming from front passenger side.

It's kind of a low-pitched squeak, coming from behind the wheel. I've taken the wheel off and can't tell exactly where it's coming from.

It seems to squeak when it gets cold outside. I can hear it loudly when I go over bumps, when the strut is compressed and released quickly. But I can hear it at low volume as I'm driving over the imperfections in the road. It also doesn't matter how fast I'm going, I can still hear it.

What do you guys think? Tie rod? Strut going out? I've already replaced my steering rack sleeves so I don't think it's those...

Looks like you DO have the kind of wheels that this issue happens to come up often.

Do you still have your stock factory Cobra rotors?

If so, you need to remove the locking washer from the wheel studs as shown in this link:

Good Luck, and **PLEASE** let us/me know if it solves your problem.

What springs? CC plates? Keep the stock isos on?

Thinking this is obvious, but these arent necessary on stock wheels are they? Tossed mine in the trash when I changed rotors

I have Cobra R rotors. No iso's. H&R's without CC plates.
