My Cougar has developed a very annoying noise since getting it put back together. I rebuilt the whole front end, and added an ADDCO stabilizer bar up front. The noise is best described as a loud "chirp" every time I hit a bump, becoming equally louder as the intensity of the bump increases. It is very constant, and seems to be the same every time.
It seems to me that it is coming from the dash, or somewhere very near here. While it is directly related to the suspension, and the new firmer ride, I don't think it is a actual suspension problem, but rather something actually inside. I've tried hold my hand on different areas of the dash and trim, but nothing seems to change it. Before I tear half the car apart, does anyone have some suggestions where to look to isolate this noise?
I tried to take some video of it, but it didn't turn out well. The sound is quite loud though, and can easily be heard over the exhaust and radio.
