Help with rear spring squeak Roush

OK, I thought I loved everything about my Roush lowering kit but the left rear spring started squeaking and it drives me crazy! I sprayed WD40 on it and it stopped but that won't last. Any ideas to cure this or do I need contact Roush for a replacment?

I'd recommend silicone lubricant available from AutoZone. My factory leaf springs squeak; and that's what takes care of it for a few months.

In the bushing area? Is the torque correct? I haven't
had that with mine yet ...

I took mine off and lubed with Mobil 1 synthetic grease. Good for the past 6 months.

I sprayed the metal clamps that hold the leafs together with lithium grease. No more squeaks.

It's not the bushing. I lubed the clamps also and that did it.

Thanks,
Jerry
