I have a 94 stang that i bought earlier this year, it has almost new Tokico Struts on it, they only had about 500 miles on them when i bought the car and i probaly only put 1,500 more on them, well anyways my passenger side front strut squeaks on some bumps and when ever i turn. i dont think the struts are bad because the car handles bumps like it should, i have tried lubricating them with WD-40 or like products but nothing seems to work for more than a day. anyone know how to quiet them down?

Are you lubing the upper strut mount bushing? Don't spray wd on the actual strut or even the bushing. Go out and buy some grease and grease up the bushing itself.

are you sure it's the strut. Most squeaks on turning or over bumps on these cars is from the outer tie rod ends.

tried greasing it and it stopped the squeak for about 1 day and then it started again
