Why does my 00 Trailboss suspension squeek the way it does? Is there anything I can do to make it quit? It is very irritating.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]

 

Could be the top of the front springs or the bushings up there. Take the nut off the top and put some silicone lubricant on them (not the spray type). Them put some in the top few coils of the springs.

 

The rear sounds louder than the front

 

Is there anything I can put on the rear shock to quiet it down?

 

Is it the shock that is squeeking or the spring?

 

First, be sure the suspension zerks are greased. If the squeak seems to be coming out of the shock area, it is usually the ends of the shock, where the bolt goes thru that squeaks. High strength silicone lubricant did the trick for my Xplorer. Just spray it in the joint the best you can, and work the suspension up & down. Keep doing this until it quiets down. Remember the bushings in the shock ends are some sort of plastic or synthetic rubber, so don't use oil on them, as oil will soften them, and cause them to weaken, likely wearing them out quicker.
