    I've heard stories of old war dogs coating each spring with brake lubricant. Or some type of antiseize/ dry graphite lubricants. Wrapping them in shrink wrap/electrical tape to keep it all in and reassembling. Could work.. or could just prove how crazy you are.

    :crazy:

    Sorry bro, if I was closer I'd come help you take em apart.

    *knock on wood* mine are relatively quiet. I just made sure to put alot of grease on the bearing and spray between the leafs at the car wash. No issues yet. Besides surface rust.

    :annoyed:

    Going to live with it for the next 2 weeks and see if it goes away by spraying dry lube on the next few days

    I used like a 1/2 tub of moly grease on mine and they are messy, but silent. We'll see how long it lasts. And I lubed the shit out of all the bushings.

    Inside and out I presume. I was talking with someone else on this. For and against opinions on that area on greasing. I didn't grease. But when my new pack comes in I probably won't grease again.

    Cv angle. Not on level grounds as I am in a 1/4" rut in the driveway. Still contemplating pulling the AAL and dropping the front at least 3/4":notsure:

    Zero bro lean. 0 driver - passenger. Felt like it was a great set up. I think I added 1/4 with the insulators at the end but either way I sat dead even 25.5 on each side. The rating is based on the tolerance of the spring when it's tested. With the plus plus I'll have a little stiffer ride than say the 0/- that I have now but I can't imagine it being stiffer just due to the fact that I'm running the AAL. I have a feeling I'll be measuring up the same as I am now. Fingers crossed. Or I'll be dropping them and the AAL to get to the desired ride height.

    Awesome! I was thinking it could have been leaving from side to side, not front to back.

    Basically one of the guidelines is to shoot for a 0/- or a +/0.

    Kind of curious to see how the +/+ turns out

    Did you take some tape to it (measurements)? Also are you running an AAL?
