    Was walking around home depot today and noticed this. It's much cheaper than trying to buy a whole roll of pond liner to stop the leaf spring squeaking.


    I haven't tried this but figured someone might benefit from knowing. I hope this helps anyone who was thinking about the pond liner mod

    I've been scheming a more permanent solution for awhile and I'm either going with a full length liner such as this,

    Or drilling holes in the leaves which don't have pads installed and adding pads, such as these from Trail Gear,

    I'm leaning towards the full length stuff. Now I just need to build up the motivation to do it...

    A quick Google for Home Depot pond liner, on the HD site, Beckett brand 20 mil, Total Pond brand 14.5.

    Shower liner 40 mil

    Those leaf spring liners I posted, .06" or 60 mil.
