Anybody else having a little bit of creaking/squeaking that wasn't there before? Not a big deal, I only hear it at crawling speeds or backing out of the driveway, just curious.
Do you also here it while turning? I had that issue too but I had no lift. It turns out both my lower control arms were bad
Check your tie rod and sway bar connections. I disconnected the sway bar and didn't get it tight enough and someone els3 mentioned the lower sway bar connection
The biggest noise in mine is coming from the driver side rear area, so I don't think its the sway bar. I checked under the Jeep, and it looks like they didn't really trim any of the skidplate where the new DayStar bracket contacts it. They just hit it with a grinder from the looks of it, and the bracket may be contacting it and causing some of the noise. Ill be setting up an apt to have all the bolts went through and retorqued after 500-700 miles and ill have them take a look at it then.
You did the G Force lift, are their spacers "plastic" or whatever the DayStars are made of? I wonder if its just the material of the spacer blocks, if so there probably isn't much that can be done about it. As long as it isn't damaging anything, I can get around the noise. That's what rock music is for
I have an update. I took the Jeep to the dealership yesterday. They said that the spring was JUST a bit off from where it should be. They fixed it and the creak is gone. To answer your question though, the G Force lift is all metal, no plastic....
Mine creaked too after the initial install. Took it in for tightening and it's been months now with nothing.
That's what im hoping to hear from mine. I will be out of town next week but hope to get it to the shop when I get back in to have them go through all the bolts again. Ill be around 7-800 miles since the install by then.
Mine sounds like shit! Dealer replaced front driver strut and now replacing sway bars. Sounds like it's falling apart. I've had my lift about 8-10 months. Sent from my iPhone using ToasterJeep mobile app
Forgot to update this thread: my rear creaking/squeaking has gone away on its own. Guess it just needed to be seated it good to settle down. Lucky me!
Just to clarify... they did not replace sway bar links. My dealer installed my lift and they forgot that the front sway bars links are Daystar. They are saying that my Daystar sway bar links are wore out. Anyone else have this issue? I find it hard to believe that the sway bar links are "wore out'.

I don't seem to have any of these problems out of my lift. I can notice a small bit more sway in the rear when going over railroad tracks, but other than that people would never know it wasn't stock. I had some initial creaking in the left rear suspension, but it cured itself and now all is good.
