My Corvette(s):
1967 coupe
Default Sqeaky rear suspension

I have a 67 sb coupe that I have owned for a short time. It has been idle for a considerable amount of time and the rear suspension squeaks when i get in the car, exit a drive way or any time the car is bounced. The suspension has rubber bushings and most of it was replaced about 4 years ago.

Dont know if there are grease nipples for the rear suspension. thks for the help.

Nope, no grease fittings. Likely squeak sources are the bushings on the ends of the camber strut rods, the front of the trailing arms, shocks, spring end link bolt cushions, or the spring. Are you sure all the bushings are rubber? If any of them were replaced with poly, they're guaranteed to squeak.
