Problems after wishbone change.

Hi all,

Just had my Wishbones (top and bottom) changed.
Also changed the dampers and springs, both front and back.
The job was don by a Alfa romeo garage.

The problem now is that there is a creaking sound from the whishbone.
I am not sure if it is top or bottom one.

There is also a slight vibration. Mostly around 60-70 km/h. (The wheels are balanced).
Have not had tracking done yet.

A friend of mine suggests that the wishbones might be mounted wrong.
He says that if the lower wishbones are munted without the weight on the wheels,the angle of the wishbone could be wrong, and this will lead to tension on wishbone, making it creak.

Does this make any sense?
