squeaky leaf driving me nuts!!!!
squeaky leaf driving me nuts!!!!
I have an 07 F150 with racecraft? springs. The truck has 4800 miles on it. The passenger side leafspring squeaks as if the truck is 30 years old with 300,000 miles on it. When I get out of the truck.....squeak, creak. When I am at a stop sign and let off the brake....same thing. Speed bumps, a twig in the road.....all squeaks.
Of course, I cannot hear this at speed, but when in a parking lot, especially with windows down.....or anywhere at low speed, these squeaks and creaks are ANNOYING AS HELL.
Are there any fixes for this? Grease the leaf bushing? Grease anything else on the leaf? Has anyone else experienced this issue with regular leaf springs?

I have had 3 sets of leafs. Stock, Eibach, and Ground Force, all 3 squeaked. I use white lithium grease spray and/or seafoam deep creep every so often. Mine squeak at the retaining clips. Also check your tailgate latches. Those are notorious squeakers too.
