Hey everyone!
I've been recently having a squeak come from my rear passenger side at low speeds. It goes away at around 10kmh. It also seems to not happen unless the truck has sat for an hour or so! I removed the wheel and greased the brake sliders and pads , cleaned the hardware that holds the pads on. I pushed back the dust gaurd as well.
Does anyone have any ideas on what the squeak could be?
the truck only has 80,000km on it.

Bump!

Depending on use and conditions, how about a bad rear shaft U joint.......maybe something to check out.

Shock?

Now that you mentioned that, maybe a leaf pad gone.

My cheap (unwarranted Monroes) started squeaking when I went over a speed bump or up and down driveway. It was the rubber insulator between the shock and spring.

He should start spraying rubber stuff to see if it goes away.

Thanks guys! I'll start in the morning by spraying every spot i can think of with wd40!

Thats a good plan, plus give it time.....spray wait a while then drive, oh and your welcome.

Update:
-i have sprayed every rubber and joint possible in the rear of the truck
-cleaned both passenger and driver side brakes which means i removed the pads and greased the edges, greased the sliders. I also pushed back the dust guards and even used string to so see if there was anything stuck between the rotors and the guards.

I have also sprayed the tailgate!

The squeaking seems to be louder when turning but like i said before goes away once the truck warms up. It also goes away with speed above 15km/h

Any other suggestions before taking it in to a shop?
