Hi guys,
First post here....looks like a great site!
I brought my 2003 Explorer with 60K miles in for a few issues plus a squeak in the front end that happens when I go over speed bumps or hit the brakes during low speeds which causes the front end to dip. The sound is similiar to a squeaky spring. The dealer told me today that I need new front sway bar bushings.
My question is...can the bushings be simply greased on a 2003 or is it advisable to replace them like the dealer is stating? How hard is it to replace the bushings if this is what you really think I do need? I'd like to avoid the $220 that they want to charge me.
Thanks!!
Ed
