Noisy U-Turn
 

Anyone know what the annoying creek and moan noise is when I make a sharp u-turn in my 93 pickup? My 84 pickup did the same thing and I believe my dads 88 runner does it too. I can not figure it out. Any hints on how to fix it would be much appreciated.

try replacing the bushings on ur leaf pack? im not sure if this oculd be it but i know they can squek

this is a pretty common problem, when your wheel is turned all the way it is against a stop bolt, which had a plastic cap from the factory, but those tend to wear through and fall off, the sound that you are hearing is the bolt rubbing your control arm, putting a little dab of grease on the bolt head will help, try a search this has been talked about before :D

yep, superjoe's on the money. a little grease on the bolts, i lube the bolts and the point of contact everytime i change the oil and lube the zerks.

I bought the bolt caps and use grease also...works great. I hate that grinding sound.

Does anyone have pics of where the caps belong and where to apply grease?
