speculating

but when you lower your car you're gonna put stress on all those bushings that aren't used to being stressed that way particularly if you aren't on adjustable suspension arms that allow a shop to align everything fully

but then again, SPL full adjustable arms have some downside, price and more road feel

if its just a squeak you might just have to eat it

So i dont have to worry bout breaking anything? I can deal with the squeak its not a big deal i just wanted to make sure nothing would break nd give me a huge bill for it

nothing's gonna break

the car has rubber bushings all over

when you change the geometry those bushings are strained and then they squeak
