Squeaking? Suspension ?

[Bradley Matthew Ward]

:unsure: I don’t quite know what it would be… I wrecked going 60-70mph into a concrete barrier. She still runs(Blue Beauty)(Ford Taurus 1996 lx, Duratec 24 valve V6.). It’s been a journey, but all straight. just now it’s squeaking when I break or take off. Also before the wreck it would squeak when I turned left(still does this.) . I wanna restore my car to original, so what could it be. Thank you everyone.

It could be related to struts, possibly the bearings in the strut mount.

I saw a video of this guy using some rubber replenishing stuff for this rubber and it made the squeaking go away. he said yes you could use W-D40 but it would wash away after a while. So what he has soaks into the rubber and “replenishes” it. Should I try this?

I would give it a try. It may help confirm the diagnosis. ..
