squeaky springs

The rear leafs or bushings of my truck squeak REALLY bad. does anybody else have this issue. It makes my 07 sound like a 87. It drives me crazy. Any suggestions??? I was thinking about soaking them with a liquid wrench or some type of penetrating oil.

 

I'm experiencing the same issue, but can't figure out if it's the shock bushings or crap in the the leaves.

I've had similiar issues on other trucks (especially GM ) and soaking them with lube will only last a few days.

From what I'm hearing from other owners, it may need to be a TSB. I'm thinking of just taking it in to the dealer.

 

theres a little bolt that the leaf springs rub on i just sprayed some WD40 on it and it was fine hope this helps

 

i also have this issue on my 07 DC. but its not loud and its not every time. I haven't really investigated, but it is annoying when it happens.

 

Just got back from the Toyota dealer. They did a search and found (2) TSBs for issues I'm experiencing with my truck. Here's the data:

TSB-SU012-07 - Rear suspension squeak
TSB-NV006-07 - Windshield noise at highway speeds (VIN specific)

Check with your dealer and have them fix it!!

 

awesome, good work and thank you!

 

My rear leaf springs squeak after the TSB has been completed. I tried spraying the bushings with white grease and it still squeaks. It is very annoying.

 

Yeah I just fixed it they installed the bolts way too tight. I loosed the bolts and sprayed some white grease and now it is fixed. Thanks for the reply.

Now my $30,000 truck doesn't sound like a rusted out crap box.

 

I have the same problem on my '05 2wd when I go over speed bumps. Had the mechanics check it out, and he said everything was fine. I'll try some wd-40.

 

My rear leafs squeaked something terrible immediatley following the harsh ride TSB install. Upon further investigation, I found that the dealer installed one of the mounting bolts backwards. The bolt was rubbing against the frame causing the squeak. I took it back to the dealer, they apologized and fixed the problem. Not that this is the case for any of you having a squeak issue, but if you just had the TSB done, I would take a look at the bolts.

 

Yeah on my truck it wasnt just one side it was both sides. It sounded like someone was having sex in the bed of my truck.

 

i got my hands on the tsb mentioned above and according to that, the problem is the silencer pads between the springs are dry and need to be lubed
