hey guys wondering if anyone has had problems with a constant creaking/ squeaking noise in rear suspension after installing a lift or maybe even without a lift kit ? lost as to where the noise is coming from exactly thought for sure it was the shackle on the leaf springs so greased them up good seemed to help for a day or so but thats it . sounds like an old bed when.. well you know , any advice would be awesome, thanks in advance !!

lift kit = bad creaking sound in rear end ?
Its probably the pads between tthe leaf springs leaves... also check for any dirt or rust there aswell. lube everything
the dealer said that too and when it was in for an oil change last they greased them up but i washed it like 5 days later and the squeak comes back cause most of the grease get washed off , is there no permanent solution ? different pads to between the leafs or something maybe ?
the best idea is to space the leaves out some..like puting rubber or bronse in between the leaves... no permanent fix as far as i know unless you get thicker pads...they used to put like 1/16" spacers between each leaf at the center to stop that and plastic at the ends...not sure why they dont do that anymore...i guess if it worked, scrap it and fix it till its broken again
ill get' er washed up and lubed maybe see about more or different spacers , thanks for the help eh! great looking whip you got btw !
