When I go over an uneven surface like backing out of my driveway or turning out of my alley, I hear a creaking noise coming from the back of my truck. It’s like the truck got stiff sitting in the garage. I only have 22,000 miles on it. Anyone else experience that?

Lubricate the rubber on your rear leaf springs.. And on the spring itself where they are banded together.. Fixed mine..
If we're talking about the same noise anyway..

Thanks. What lubricant did you use? That seems like the type of sound I am hearing.

I think our '17 Screw had a squeak early on but I changed the shocks to Bilstein 5100's and haven't had any squeaks since. We only have 52K on ours now.

It might also be the body mounts, but usually those "clunk" rather than squeak.

If you’ll look on the grill you will find the problem circled in a blue oval.

It isn’t a squeak. It’s more of a soft thump. I thought maybe the bed bolts were torquing but not sure exactly what it is.

I was going to invent a drive through car wash that instead of using water we use WD-40. Would have been perfect for this problem.
