    Hey everyone,
    I had an Icon AAL installed a couple months ago and now it’s developed a squeak. It sounds like it’s only happening sub 10mph. Any ideas how to get rid of it. Not only is it annoying, but is rather embarrassing.

    appreciate any input.

    A big flathead screwdriver to pry them apart a bit and squirt some lube in.

    like juforrrst said- jack it up to let the springs unload, drive a big ass flathead between the leaves and hose em down. just watch pulling the screwdriver out when your done, the grease will splat out haha.

    Three words. inner slide lube. We use this on the trailers at work with adjustable axles and on our forklift mast. I had a problem with my 2016 stock springs squeaking. Sprayed between each leaf and the squeak immediately went away and I didn’t have to spray again for almost 30,000 miles.

    No problem! Try to hit up a truck stop or truck repair/trailer repair shop they should have some as it’s common to use this on stuff in the semi truck world or I’m sure Amazon has it!

    PNWTacoAdventures were you able to fix it? I just installed a AAL Icon and one week after, I can hear the squaking noise

    He hasn’t been on this forum for almost two years so I doubt you’ll get an update.
