[QUOTE="Milky milky, post: 861464, member: 61592"] I have a constant squeak in the rear suspension too. I tracked it down to the leaf springs. Between the leaves at the ends there is a plastic spacer missing allowing the the shorter leaf end to rub against the leaf above it. The spacer looks like a disc with a short protrusion that lets it sit in the lower leaf sandwiched by the upper leaf. I don't know how it fell out. I tried to pry the two leaves apart to get some grease in there but it was hard and I didn't want to bend my screwdriver. Someday I'll put some effort in to it and put a spacer in there but for now I just hit it with some WD-40 and turn up the radio. [/QUOTE]
