I was wondering what the best remedy for squeaky shocks is. What I'm talking about is when the outer spring rubs against the body of the shock, causing a squeak. Any suggestions?

I think alot of utility quads have this problem of spring rubbing the shock body. I would say an easy fix is WD-40. If you wash you bike frequentley, after it dries, spray the shocks down with WD-40. I spray my entire chassis/engine with WD-40 after every wash.
