Default Front end sqeak

I have a 93 accord that the front end sqeaks every time i turn or hit a bump. any ideas? i had the axles changed maybe 2 -3 yrs ago with new cv joints and boots. it's getting to be really annoying that i can't figure it out.

any help would be great to me and all the pedestrians as i can see their faces cringe as i pass by..

I would suspect that the suspension bushings are wearing out.

lube the inner sway bar bushings and try ot again.........

remove the 2 ,12 mm bolts for the inner bracket, remove the bushings and apply grease tothe INSIDE of the bushing only, where it rides on the sway bar DO NOT put grease on the outside of the bushings.......

while under the car ,, as MBO suggested, chk all the other suspension parts.. lower and upper ball joints, ....

let us know the results

I had the same problem with my car. I just sprayed a lot of WD-40 on top of the upper control arm and around the ball joint and it went away! Might be a strut goin also!
