    Just squeaky or is this different? Maybe pressure wash in between the leafs might be something in there. If a shop with just check it out for free that would good too.

    I'd for sure take it back. That's really unacceptable, can you get it to repeat when you test drive it?

    Buy some allpro, wheelers, old man emu leaf springs. They all have 3" of lift or go with some general brand leaf springs with no lift if you are for sure saying its the leaf springs.

    Mine had a little squeak similar but not as serious as that but I fixed it by spraying some chain oil over everything including the top shock bushings and I havn't heard anything since.

    Yes you definitely need a relay, the place you bought if from should have sold the relays for the light bar. That would have included the wires too and the instructions in most cases. As to placement of the switch that even easier all it mostly needs is finding the "blank" and removing it and then just running the wires, if it is in a tricky spot you can always fish the wires thru. It is not hard at all.
