Does anyone here with the front lift spacers get squeaking in the front suspension when going over small bumps or rough pavement?

It is driving me crazy.

Mine doesn't squeak at all. Find out what is going on and fix it. Can you get a squeak if you manually push the front end down or jump up and down on bumper?

YES! I can move the truck by hand and the damn front suspension sounds like an old creaky rocking chair. Driving me NUTS.

I tried spraying some lithium grease into the upper control arm bushings....no dice.

Guess I will rip it all apart this weekend and find the squeak.

How do the Bilsteins ride compared to stock? I really like the smooth ride of this truck.
