Have an 02 Explorer with an Ungodly squeak on the drivers side.
Have Looked at all the bushings etc & sprayed with PB Blaster but won't go away!!!
any recommends??
Thanks
 






Can you splain this any more for us? Drivetrain squeak? Suspension? Need a little more specific information to cipher this one.
 






Seem like it a suspension type, when it goes over bumps etc.
Thanks
 






The bushings in the suspension of explorers are "lubed for life" = no zerk fittings

I've fought multiple rounds of squeeky A-arms and shock bushings. PB Blaster is not the right tool for this job, it will attack your rubber bushings (long term). You'll need a grease gun, a needle fitting, and some "red grease" (technical name I know). Carefully cram that needle fitting in between the bushing and the steel housing, and put a few pumps. Repeat all the way around the car.

It's not an easy lube job...
