Upper Control Arm-Front End Creek?
Anyone have to replace the upper control arm on their C6?
When at a dead stop going onto a slow role with the wheel turned far left, I still hear a front end creek. End links were replaced (seems to be an issue many have had with success), but this did not help the noise in my vette. Next step is going to be to possibly replace the upper control arm. Anyone have success with a front end creek after replacing the upper control arm?

Before you replace anything, you might also try disconnecting the end links from the suspension and trying it again. This is easy to do, and eliminates four ball joints and two anti-roll-bar bushes as suspects.
