Default Squeaky Bed...

I put belltech shackles on my 02 Dodge. Now, I hear this awfull squeaking when the truck has a slight movement. I can stand on the hitch and bound the truck and it's coming from the left side. I've lubed the bushing...but still noisy. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Shawn

Hahah..Yeah, I've cralled under there and it's the left side only....

I called belltech and he mentioned shi$$y bushings, and possibly sand getting in there. He recommended taking them out and cleaning and re-lubing. So, we'll see.
