Lower control arm squeak

I have just replaced both my front lower control arms. On inspection the rubber bush that connects to the diagonal had a small amount of gravel stuck in the bush, i'm sure this may have contributed to my squeaking noise. The bush itself had started to delaminate slightly also. Worth a look if you are getting similar squeaks ! If i were designing the diagonal arm i'd put some form of cover over the top of the bush to stop gravel getting in!

Or stay out of the Kitty Litter. [;)]
 
no choice when you have a gravel drive to park on!!! This was the small type of gravel that you get with this type of driveway, not the stuff you get at the track!
