Suspension Spring ( Coil / Leaf ): Testing and Inspection

To correct a squeaking condition at the rear springs:

^

Determine whether it is the rear spring or the shackle bushings squeaking. If it is determined to be the bushings, replace them.

^

If it is the rear springs, install new rear spring anti-squeak inserts to correct the squeak.

^

If the original spring clip is damaged during removal, install a new service spring clip.
