^there is also two videos of the sound
Those are some pictures, if you can see anything, which I doubt since none are too up close. Then at least point out what might to check from what picture, and it would be much appreciated. As of right now the car is perched up and wont be taking it anywhere for a while.

tagging along...
viewed both videos, the moan/squeak at the start of vid # 2 is plauging my car at all four corners - i just figured something was worn out and way too old.
interested to see your process of repair.

i still think its a shock.
whens the last time you replaced the shocks?
if you broke them good it might explain.
that or you might have busted a bushing, but even then i cant imagine it holding the spring compressed.

I am thinking upper control arm bushings. Looking at the picts lots of dirt and grim around the seals.
Try greasing the upper control arm see if the sound goes away. If it does then you should plan on replacing the upper control arm bushings. If the sound does not go away continue greasing the other suspension grease points and repeat.

Mine makes a deep frog-like noise if I back out of the driveway and turn too far to the right causing the left wheel to drop off the curb leaving the right one up high. I know it's just the old suspension though. I'd definitely be looking at your shocks and springs though.
Well I have the car driven up on those ramps for the front tires.
And tomorrow I will remove the front right shocks, absorber, if anybody has any tips please. NEVer done this before so its sorta new to me.

Changing front shocks can be a pain, so minimize the number of times you do this by multi tasking. If you need to re-inforce the shock towers, change the springs, change the coil seats, or get a new export brace, do them at the same time if you can.
