    Stock leafs suck, they make a ton of noise and flatten out. Most aftermarket ones squeak like crazy too.

    Have you done visual inspection?
    Have you checked you VIN for TSBs?
    Did you get Carfax report for the truck?

    Is it a Squeaking sound? If it is, you might need new spacers between the leaf springs.

    If you're worried about the squeaking, I do NOT recommend Dakars.

    Any pics of your current leaf pack?
