The squeeking is the brake caliper (brembo brakes) and the creeking is the locking differentials. All completely normal. I have a range rover sport and they crawl over obstacles with incredible smoothness.
any car with good on road handling, will have bad weel articulation,it has better articulation without the dynamic suspension,about the same as any midsize suv with a solid axle!!
this is another example of rovers build, its built for ON road...enough said. Its I.S. could never out articulate a solid axle, however I agree that ON road the rover will ride better than a solid axle cruiser, but not ever OFF road. Heck the RRS isnt even comparable to a full size RR in my book thats just a squished LR3. But neither are comparable to a Toyota Land Cruiser...in my book
the supercharged versions arn't really designed to articulate,but the hse's without seem dynamic suspension do really well,if you compare the flex of base model range rover sport to the lexus gx470 there isn't alot difference,the solid axle give the impression that the suspension is alot more flexible,when its not really!
I agree however the GX isnt a Land Cruiser and its not to be mistaken as one...its not at all.
Yes the suspension is IFS in front and SA in rear in the US. cruisers flex well and the solid axle in the back is what helps alot because of the "lean" to the front, the rear does the heavy work therefore the front doesnt have to do as much, therfore Toyota can get away with putting IFS in the front
i was comparing it to the gx because there both midsized suvs,along with the european land cruiser(mid sized one).But ive seen a video on youtube where they did the same hill with both the lexus lx 470 and the full sized range rover and the articulation was almost identilcal,though the on the lexus the weels sliped more,and they couldn't go up the same way as the rr,though they might not of had the tration control on.
At a local 4x4 meeting this morning a fellow had a 07HSE with a roof rack and winch plate I brought out my 07LX470 and we put them one one of the Jeep guys RTI ramps. with the front wheels the score was 700 on the rover and 710 on the LX, and we did the rear and the rover got 680 and the LX got 740, BUT I will give the rover credit for not alot of slippage...it really wanted to keep going even after the tire started to lift, same in the LX but the rovers TC is more smooth and not as "jumpy"
well of its going to have slightly more articulation will the solid axle,but i guess the tc evens it the score out,ps i though you only bought land cruiers!
Only a vehicle with either at least one locker, center diff lock, or an intelligent Traction Control could make that. A regular four wheel drive could not.
The center difflock alone doesnt help at all. But also vehicle wich has enough flexible suspension, can do that even whit 2 Wheel drive. Or if you put a locker in old 2wd passenger car, it can cross that, if angles are good enough.
To see this just makes me smile, my Cherokee would do this much quicker with a much less noise, this P.O.S. sounds like it's breaking in half doing this.
Oh, yeah, my Cherokee is unmodified, and is worth maybe 10% of the money you need to buy one of these roadcars ;)
The brake pads make that sound, the grip on the brake disk is very high .

I think the squeeking is the brakes not the suspension, but who knows.
