Creaking suspension on 96 Civic

    My 96 Civic DX Coupe has developed a "creak-creak-creak" sound when I
    brake hard (from the rear) and from the front (when I turn briskly). My
    question is....what is most likely making the sound...suspension mounts
    in need of lube or a suspension component in need of replacement?

    Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

    My wrench said the drive axles have to be replaced. He can rebuild them
    for $165 each.

    Any thoughts?

    The $165 included installation. I checked around here in NYC. Thats not
    a bad price around here.
