dounome Posted July 25, 2004 Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 About a month ago I started to get a squeek out of the rear of the truck and it has gotten worse as time has gone on. I have the truck lowered with the Mc kit and have had no problems except this crap. I do know that when I put the leafs back together I didn't tighten them too much so the truck would sit nice and level. Do you guys think this could be dirt or something in the pivots? Help please, its driven me nuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted July 25, 2004 Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 Do you have nerf (step) bars? They can squeek like crazy when first mounted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawk Posted July 25, 2004 Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 Sure the noise is coming from your suspension? Could be your bed rubbing on the frame from lose bolts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dounome Posted July 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 No nerf bars, but good call......well I just lifted it up and cleaned the hell out of them and tightened them up with lots of WD-40......have to see what happens. hey Blackhawk my brother lives in Mesa he has a 03 Black SS thats lowered.

blackhawk Posted July 25, 2004 Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 That’s cool; I had one of the first ones in the area and went for months never seeing another one. Now I see them all the time, mostly black… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dounome Posted July 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2004 His is a little diffrent from the rest, I wish I had his money and time.

Dr Mike Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 Had bad squeak, sure it was front suspension, took it in, the parking brake cable was not positionned properly on some of our rides and rubs on frame causing annoying squeak. They changed park brake cable and repositionned it, whammo quiet as a mouse for 3 months now... Dr Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
