I recently installed the Tokico Hp kit for my car. It was working great took corners good, drove well in the rain due to good road contact. Now the other day the suspension started to squeak in the front, it squeaks constantly during lower speeds and over any bump. The squeaking is not loud, but the other day when it rained the car no longer handled so well in the rain. I dont know what coulkd be the cause of it, does the car need an alignment? Thanks for any feedback.

always get your car aligned after lowering it. As for the squeaking it could just be your springs. Get it aligned and the tech guy will tell you of any problems you might have with your suspension.

nothing...some springs squeak and some don't, (most don't). After everything is broken in they may stop squeaking. But get it aligned asap.

Come back when you find out what the issue was for future reference.

So I went to go get the car aligned, and found out from the tech that my upper control arm was broken. I now have to go and get this part, at the same time I am going to get installed strut tower bars from Megan racing (yeah I know cheap). The strut tower bars are for front and rear, upper and lower. Once I get this all done I will probably look into installing a camber kit, then save for rims and exterior mods.
