Adjustable strut rods making terrible sound 74 Swinger

George Lawicki said
Sorry guys, don't get all cantankerous. I drive a truck and sometimes can't get a minute to get on here. The metal bushings are installed correctly. As far as the sound goes, well it sounds like squeaking tbh not really sure if its metal on metal or something else. I'am just guessing at this point because I have never used or have any experience with these adjustable strut rods. Now if y'all hang on I'll get a pic of how the pivots are angled. Also could I get a direct link to the adjustment procedure? I wasn't able to find it.. Thanks !

It does look like the one side is tilted the wrong way. When I installed mine the tops of both heims angled toward the center of the car, slightly. There's no "right" angle though, but you have to make sure it does not bind during movement.

Mine make no noise once adjusted properly. The heims probably do have a bit of play, but with just a touch of preload it gets taken out and still no bind.
