    Stupid question, I know...but my OME suspension squeaks a little bit at low speeds. I've had it since February. I'm assuming that's normal because of the stiffer components. Anything I should be concerned about? Thanks.

    Good question, and I'm not sure. All I know is I hear it at slow speeds...like a spring compressing...so I can't say for sure if it's the coils or the leafs...I guess that would be a good thing to know.

    My OME setup squeaked a bit a month or so ago. Suddenly stopped and it's been fine ever since. *Shrug*

    take a peek at the front end where the shock is close to the sway bar. see if they are touching. that could be one thing causing the squeak from the front end. if not try some lube in between the leaf if its coming from the rear.
