Or louder mufflers! :jester

You'll need to narrow it down some. It may be suspension parts (bushings).

Most of the squeaks in our cars comes from missing and loose interior screws. When I refinished the interior of my 86, everything got taken apart, refinished and reassembled. As I went, I replaced missing screws and everything of course got tightened down. Even with it's Z51 susp, there wasn't a single squeak when I was done.

I have a handout from one of Gordon Killebrew's classes on eliminating dash squeeks. I can copy and mail it to you if you want. Send your address to corvetteronw@hotmail.com :cheers:
