    That suspension "CREEEAK" on full lock

    Hi guys,

    Just about every Pajero I have owned ( gen 1,2 and 3) have this really loud "creak" sound on full lock. Sort of happens when reversing backward out a driveway or if you nose in on someones driveway to do a U turn and elongate the suspension a little. Ive done recent shaft swaps so I know it aint shaft related.

    Im just hoping that other Paj owners know the sound. Its hard to miss.

    Scott.

      Or a litle dab of grease on the stops when you grease the ball joints.

        Pharb, or anyone else, don’t suppose you’ve got a pic of exactly where to put the grease?

        Shorty makes this annoying sound too and I’d like to stop it!
