Default Lowered car now making noise ?
Friend put lowering springs on car and now there is a sqeaking noise coming from the shock/spring area when the car is moving. What is causing that?

no, almost, but not quite..at least I thought. I'll double check, but I dont think so. It wasnt always making this sound until the car was put on a lift for an oil change. ? dont know why it started then

ball joints maybe?
Theres a number of items in suspension that can cause that
