    So ive tried pressure washing my leafs and greasing them. And still there is mad squeaking from the leafs. I drive a lot of MTN roads and through farm fields that are very rough, and the squeaking is driving me insane. Is their any other way to get the squeaking to stop besides buying new leafs in the future?

    Did you loosen the leaf pack and wipe out in between each leaf then grease them?

    Just echoing that I have the same issue. It started after driving some muddy back roads. I pressure washed them but that seemed to make it worse.

    I had the same problem and tried everything to get rid of it. I took it to the dealer and they put in a new set of silencers for free and that fixed my problem.

    if you want a permanent solution take the pack apart and spray rustproofing all over them, wait for it to dry, and spread the grease.
