Default help weird noises?

i have a 95 mustang and every time i break there is a squeek that is comeing from each side of the engine. i thought i was the shocks for a while but im not sure i think its original suspention.(only when i am moveing)

ok thats one noise the other noise is every time i turn the steering wheel a similer noise happens. i got under the car and it looks like it is comeing from the disk breaks area and at the same time a crack noise happens back in the midle of the engine area.

if anyone knows what eather one could be please help. thanks

check your ball joints and your rotors and brake pads they may be cracked.

I am a ford tech replace the tie rod ends and the noise will be fixed. I am giving you this diag for free. I can get an hour diag at the dealership I work for. This is a coman cencern. They are very easy to replace and if done correctly there is no need to set toe. Count how many threads or turns old one had and install new one to same position that easy. Good luck.

That is if the replacement is exactly the same as the original. I'd measure the center of the pivot to some known mark and set the new one to that.

It's BRAKES!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol, oh yeah and Disc too.

Sounds like your front pads & rotors are gettin alittle old man, if it's a constant squeek while on the brakes, I'd disregard the Free Ford Tech's Diagnosis and go ahead and do the front brakes.
