Auxiliary Rear Springs - Slapping/Banging Noise

NOISE - SLAPPING/BANGING - AUXILIARY REAR SPRINGS
LIGHT TRUCKS 1980-85 F100-350 (EXCEPT 137" and 161" CHASSIS CABS)
The auxiliary rear springs may make a "slapping" noise when the leaf contacts the frame bracket since the pad is hard material and does not fully cover
the contact surface. A new larger size pad, made of a softer material, will resolve this condition.
When installing these new pads, file off any sharp edges of the slots in the brackets (new bumpers may be damaged by sharp edges) and use liquid soap
to ease installation of the rubber bumpers.
