creaking suspension

'92 Civic

Take a guess- cornering and under accel/decel the front right wheel
area creaks like a big old door. Worn bushings, bend arm, cost, anyone?

Most likely the springs moving in their seats, which are rusty. Take the
car for a long drive (an hour or more) down bumpy roads, which will wear
off the rust. If the noise does NOT disappear after that, then you've got
possible shock absorber problems.

Re: creaking suspension

I think this problem might be the ball joints
