Getting the Wheeling Fever
|
I installed the Pro-comp add-a-leaves about a month ago, and until tonight I had no problems with them. They creak and sqeak over any bump i hit and its pretty loud. i'm wondering if i can take it back apart and possibly grease them? if so what kind of grease should i use. Anything else to stop it? Thanks!

Yep, that's what I did. I took some axle grease and schmeared it on the sides of the springs(don't need to take them apart. You don't even need alot. Then wrap the springs in duct tape to keep the dirt out while the grease works in. Drive around for a week or so and the grease will work itself in. then remove the duct tape and wipe the excess grease off the springs. All done!

Scope out the Penephite over on this site; their Aerokroil is pretty good too Kano Labs

Try some spray on dry graphite lube. It's a great lubricant and it contains no oil so it won't attract dirt.
