creaking noise!! AHH!
 
Everytime I turn the wheel in my 89 GT or go over a bump, my front end makes a god awful creaking noise.

It sounds like bushings, but I can't narrow the placement down. It doesn't seem to affect performance through the turns either. I just want it to go away. Could it also be my springs? I'm just going nuts.

I have had the same problem for about 1 1/2 years. If you figure out what it is, let me know. Sorry I couldnt help.

I think I'll just go in with a can of lithium grease for the bushings and look like hell for Zerks I may have missed.

mine does it now that i unhooked my front sway bar, but if i zip up the front end links to the sway bar it doesnt do it. Make sure the links are tight!!!

Are there any zirt fittings on a stock '87-'93 5.0 Mustang? I had them on my SSM lift bars before I got rid of them. I never saw any others?? Have I been missing them all these years?
