My Rough Country springs squeek while driving. Is there anything that I can do to quite them? Please only useful answers ( you smart asses out there know who I'm talking too)

Squeeky springs

pick up truck and let axles hang to fan out springs. then put grease on them and run it. other wise take them all apart and do this. or spring shop to punch them for anti squeak pads to be installed.
Depends on where they are squeaking.
If it is the bushings, get greasable bolts.
If it is between the leaves, get self-adhesive UHMWPE strips, take the packs apart, and put s strip on the bottom of each leaf.

Is this a new lift you just put on? Get greasable bolts or take your bushings apart (out of the leaf packs) and smear some white lithium grease ALL over them.

X2 on the lithium grease. My friends did that on his new BDS lift after about 6 months and after he applied it to the leaf bushings he never had any more problems.

If you dont drive it then it cant squeek.

Thanks for the advice. It's a new lift with less than 200 miles on it.I'll try the grease and see how that goes.

Also read years ago that you could cut "spacers" out of a plastic milk jug and slip between springs to quiet them
