Creaking noise after changing out balljoint and tie rod
So after changing these out I noticed a creaking noise when I go over small bumps and when I come to a stop. Any idea what could be the problem?
Thanks in advance

Had the same experience. I'm guessing you went from oem to Moog ball joints? Did you grease the ball joint? Also you will need an alignment.
