Hi I have the truck listed above k1500. I keep hearing a squeaky sound. When I shake the cab you can hear it squeaking. I have brand new shocks. Is their something I can spray or buy lubricant to grease the leaf springs to see if it goes away? If it does not I will buy a needle for my grease gun and try to inject it into the cab mounts to see if that is the cause. How hard is it to change the cab mounts?Thanks.

Good morning.

WD40 is a great product for stopping those pesky squeaks. spray all the rubber mounts and between the leafs on the springs. spray all the moving suspension points as well.
