Replaced my innter and outer tie rods, upper and lower ball joints, and sway bar end links on my 97 z28 in may of 2009.

About 6 months ago it started squeaking and has gotten worse. It squeaks when I turn the wheel, hit a bump, etc.. Even when I push down on the fender.

A friend said it is probably the outer tie rod, so I replaced that and it's still squeaking.

Could it be the lower ball joint? It is on the passenger side.

I have also read that sometimes sway bar bushings can be noisy, but I'm not so sure that is the problem.

Any suggestions as to how I can track this down? It's really annoying.
 
check the spring ?? my s10 did that before & it ended up being that, the spring wore though the rubber couchin . replaced that & my noise went away !!!!

The car has an Eibach pro kit, put on at the time of the new suspension. I suppose it's possible, I will inspect the rubber seat that the springs sits in.

Any other suggestions guys?
 
Your gonna need a second hand, have one person in the car moving the wheel. And yourself, get a stethescope and poke around at all the pivots or possible places for noise to occur
