Squeeky Dakar Leafs

THIS is the solution. Lay these between each leaf.

 

Have you done this?

PIC?

 

Nope. Not yet.
When I was shopping for my leaf springs another member highly recommended these as he had them on his Dakars. I'm ordering my HDs today and will be ordering these leaf liners and putting them on my leaf packs prior to install. Will update with pictures in a few weeks once they are installed.

@nd4spdbh is the member who told me about them. Maybe he can give more info

 

I have OME Dakars installed with supplied bushings heavily greased, no noises for me. I've had them for over a year now, tons of Texas beach driving, Big Bend trails - all quiet. The only time I've ever heard them was the day after I hauled 550lbs of soil. They made some groaning but by mid afternoon all quiet. I would be interested in finding out why some people have this issue and others do not.

 

I used these when I installed my pack several months ago. Well worth the few bucks to help avoid future squeaks. Took two rolls to do the job. I also used the Dorman greasable shackle bolt and bushing.
