Hey guys and gals,

My car starts making this loud squeaky/grinding noise when turning either left or right . I looked under the car and found this . How did this happened ? I will jack up the car later tonight and get a better look at it.

Those are your lower control arm impact bushings. Those normally don't go bad. I replaced those on my Z with SPL parts.

Normally, 'squeaky/grinding' noise when turning, is tires rubbing against the inner fender. Lowered?
Size tires?

Based on the pictures, I'm not seeing anything out of the ordinary, outside of some rub marks on the inner fender liner.

I figured it out. That's normal. It seem like my steering fluid pump stop working

A failing power steering pump would definitely give you some funky noises.
