Default 65 Fastback: Front right side squeaks while making a turn

Hello,

The front right side of my 65 fastback squeaks while I'm making a turn. Turning the steering wheel doesn't cause it to squeak but when I accelerate into the turn; that's when I hear the squeaking. Does anyone have any ideas what to look for?

No, the suspension has not been updated at all.

I would try lubing all the joints in the suspension if that don't fix it then its time to start rebuilding it.

years ago,when i had my '65, the front upper bushings were wore out,and it squeaked BAD,everytime i hit a lil bump,or there was a dip in the road,etc..might want to look at those, mine were completely gone, and when we replaced them,we had to cut small slots in the shock tower (inside the engine bay) to allow the grease "zerks" to be reached,in order to grease them sometimes..i think they now have them with 90 degree fittings,so that they can be greased from inside the fenderwell...anyway,just an idea on what might be causing the squeak
