morgey Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Basically since fitting my whiteline RARB I've been getting knocking and creaking noises coming from it.Now I've given it a jolly good yank and it seems solid as, im just wondering if its just that its 2nd hand and the bushes are dry (no i didnt have any grease at the time!) or if they're worn maybe?Or even if I've drilled the drop link holes in the wrong place (no instructions) i mounted them vertically above the rear most part of the bar?Anybody have the same/similar problems?Thanks for any input in advance Quote
Amjad Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 These have been known to squeak if you don't apply plenty of grease, easy fix Quote
morgey Posted October 30, 2012 Author Posted October 30, 2012 Sweet!Ill give them a once over when im sorting my brakes this weekend Cheers Quote
DavidAshton Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Yes they knock like fuck when they dry out, it will be the main bushings on the rear axel that the bar goes through, they need plenty of grease.I have to re apply 6 monthish to keep mine quiet! Quote
shorty Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 also check the captive nuts are super tight they are renound for working loose. very common on the wl bars. search tgtt and it comes up loads Quote

Liam_D Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Mines knocks like fuck! Always has done since I fitted it! I just add it to the 'random noises you expect from a modified car' list Quote
