1987 Continental w/ 90K.

Installed brand new struts. Didn't replace control arm bushings.

after 1000 mi front left is now squeaking CONSTANTLY. All I need to do is step on the bumper and it squeaks.

Driving me INSANE.

Is this a strut problem? A bushing problem? I have no idea.

Advice apprec, I am slinking down in my seat as I squeak drive squeak through squeak parking lots squeak.

Maybe its the strut mount. If the mounts are original, they gotta go.

i had the exact same problem with my car i have a 92 tho. but ui changed my frnt struts and my front left end squaeaked real loud and bad. i checked ti and like behind my brakes was this metal rubbong on the disc thing(not to good with car thing names) but yeah i just moved that off the disc and it quit squeaking
