    Maybe I missed it somewhere within the hundreds of pages between the two threads, but is taking apart the leafs to perform this squeak mod fairly easy? Or do you need special tools and an extra set of hands to do it?

    there is no need to take the Dakars apart to do this mod....ive had this done for 2 years now and its quiet as can be. only issue i had was the zip ties broke over time....reinstalled new ones..done and done. takes literally 2 minutes. u do need to raise the back end off the ground so the springs arent under load so you can slip those zip ties through the leaf though.

    Your mods aren't exactly the same. @Pigpen looks to have a longer term solution with the extra step.

    its a more permanent solution no doubt...but it envolves removing the leaf packs from the vehicle....thats alot more than just "an extra step" imo. to do a simple ziptie mod, the leafs stay in place. at any rate.....both ways work...its just a matter of how much work you want to do to achieve the same result.

    I did mine as a squeak prevention before installing the leaf pack. When it degrades I'll just add zip ties back in. Some of the inner tubes are already coming apart within a year's time (specifically the ones at the "military wrap"). The others are holding together nicely.

    There's no way I would've taken them off just to add the rubber, if the springs had already been on the truck. I'll be doing it just like you in the future when it's needed.

    I know im late to the party, but judging by the price you paid im guessing you didnt get aftermarket uca's. IF your running stock uca's with that set up how is the alignment and ride?
