noisey suspension
i have an 04 precedent that is used mostly for hunting, i love this thing, but the front suspension is very noisey. it squeaks with every little bump. is there anything i can do to quiet it down? WD-40 and other lubes seem to work for about 10 mins then its back to the racket. it has a 4'' jakes lift on it. thanks in advance for any help

Re: noisey suspension
Usually the squeak comes from between the two front leaf springs, (at least from what I've seen!)
I've used spray White lithium grease, on my cart and two others, spray on generously between the leafs, and wipe off the excess... the squeaks never came back! .02 |

Re: noisey suspension
My 2 cents. WD-40 is not a lubricant.

Re: noisey suspension
It's actually true!
NASA developed WD-40 for the seals on rockets!  |

Re: noisey suspension
According to the WD40 official site about Myths, it is a lubricant.

Re: noisey suspension
That's cool!
(o.k., so it wasn't "NASA"!)all I know is... I, personally won't use WD-40 on anything! except a water drenched distributor cap! (that was, however, "back in the day"!) But... that's just me!  |
