Creeeeeeeek. Creeeeeeeeek.
I thought my swing arm bushings were rubbing. I installed one of them there heavy duty swing arms. It sounded like rubber bushing rubbing against metal or something like that.
I tightened the t-clamps down and sprayed them with grease. Nope that ain't it. Creeeeek. Creeeeek.
I rolled my bus by hand until I heard the creek. Sounded like bull frogs mating. I isolated the sound. It was coming from the front driver side wheel. Brake caliper or disc might be lose. Wheels spin free when I jack up the wheel and spin it.
I go to take off the lug nuts. Some, not all, of them were pretty lose. I tightened them up. Then a light bulb went off.
Could that be it? I thought to myself.
Yep...no more bull frogs mating. I love the easy fixes.
What do loose lug nuts sounds like?
