rear end creak

Dino · 05-31-2000, 01:04 PM

I've been getting this creaking noise coming from the back end of my 96 GT lately. I notice it when I'm going slow over uneven roads (i.e speed bumps, small potholes). Something tells me that it's brake related though because sometimes if the car happens to be parked somewhere and is shut off, I can replicate the sound by applying the brakes and letting them off. Anyone have any ideas about what the noise is? Thanks!

Seems like it might be with the parking brake draging?? Or it could just be the springs....
