squeak.
 

today i was in the bed of my truck and moved around i heard a squeak. i bounced some more in my bed and the squeak got louder. so im presuming its the rear shocks which are brand new. couple months old. i bought them as part of my leveling kit. so they are the rough country shocks.

Probably the bushings in the leaf springs making the noise.

do they need to be replaced then?

check for grease fittings as sometimes the factory puts in greasable bushings. also check for cracking, flaking.

no cracking or flaking. bushing are still good. im still thinking its the shocks. should the rod be on the top or the bottom as the shock is installed?

The rods are on the top.

ok. probably give it more time for them to break in.
