Default Shocks Squeakin' And a Creekin'

Kind of noisy Crikin' and Crackelin' sounds. I think coming from the shocks. When I get in and sit down or hit a bump. They seen to work fine just noisy I'm wondering if there is a way to lube the shocks or do they just get replaced?

Silicone spray lubricant on all of the rubber bushings up front (not just shocks) seems to help. It'a not a permanent fix, but it'll last a while and it's quick enough to reapply as needed.

Is it a rubbery creaking sound? Or a distinct rubbing and creaking metal sound? It's possible that you are missing some bushings or some are too far gone

Replaced bushings lately. I'll try the silicone spray on all the joints and see what happens.

The noise is likely coming from the leaf springs...try to pry the leafs apart with a screw driver and insert a thin piece of plastic and then see if that helps.😎
