    Lately I've been hearing this squeaky sound coming from the back on my truck, I wonder if anyone else has had this problem and how to fix it?

    Normal.

    Pressure wash your leaf springs to get rid of anything that may be stuck between them. Other than that, some people wrap the (individual?) leafs with some kind of fabric/material that minimizes the squeaking. Do a search, squeaky leaf springs is a common thing.

    Spray them with some kind of oil. I hit mine with fluid film and have never had the issue.
