Squeaking Leaf Springs

Mar 07, 2005 1 Replies

The leaf springs "squeaking" on my 95 EB is sounding worse by the day. Looking through the NG I see some recommendations for spraying the leaf springs with lubricant. Would a silicon lubricant work for this purpose? Also see a recommendation to replace the leaf springs "pads". What exactly are these, and how difficult to replace.

I used an Amsoil product, Synthetic 5th wheel and open gear compound. it's a spray grease that stays where it's sprayed {most tenacious grease I ever seen} also,try and get the leaf's separated if you can before spraying them,I usually take it to a buddies shop and put it on the lift where the tires sag down,that helps open up the leaf pack a bit to spray the grease in between them .
