quick question

[magnahoe]

Anyone know what the annoying squeak coming from the rear of my tahoe is? It isn't U joints their brand new, also not the rear hatch since I have barn doors. thanx

Leaf springs maybe? Does it happen when you take off from a stop? If so mine does it too and I'm still trying to figure it out, if its not the leaf springs.

It does it when i slow down most of the time, also over bumps some times so thats what I was also thinking. I have to replace mine anyway because half of two are missing on my passenger side.

Probably the shocks and/or the shock bushings

nope their also new, but keep the suggestions coming. Possibly sway bar end links?

Also anyone know how to stop the lose change sound in the dash? It seems like every piece of plastic in my truck rattles when i go over bumps, but I didn't buy it for the interior.

Unfortunately, the rattles will come with the territory (more often than not anyways). My interior is completely intact, in pretty good shape too, but my cup holders in the dash will rattle, the sliding cover on the front of my center console rattles, and the ash-tray will rattle.

I also hear squeaks when going over speed bumps or just generally bumpy roads, but that part will be taken care of soon, as I'll be replacing a bunch of suspension components. Just too bad I don't have the extra cash to get my suspension lift while I'm at it.

ya'lls is a squeek... mine sounds like a horn honk

 

[retorq]

My rear hatch doesn't line up right and every now and then the rear window will "pop" and squeak ...

Theres a grease you can take and put in-between the leafs in the leaf pack susposed to stop the squeak

Check the spare tire and tire tools. Mine used to squeek but I tightened the spare tire down and put some gloves between the tire tool and the jack....no more squeek

 

[wicked2000]

Mine was the driver side leaf spring. I tighten up the bolts that hold the lift blocks then i sprayed the leaf springs with W-d40. There are some plastic brackets with a metal around it that hold leafs together. Concentrate on those when spraying it because the noise I think is the plastic rubbing on metal.

 

[magnahoe]

yeah I just put in new used leafs on the passenger side, which I thought the squeak was coming from and it didn't stop. Oh yeah and I was kinda pissed I had to drive really far to get u bolts, NO ONE on Cape Cod stocks them not even the Chevy dealers.

i have the same problem and i bet thats what it is...im gunna check on that tomorrow.

 

[TheBeast99]

shit, if my honking is from that damn spare i'm gonna tighten that sucker down SO hard.
then again, mine's a 4door, so i'm skeptical that that's what my problem is....
