Fix Toyota Tundra Leaf Spring Squeak – Fast DIY Noise Repair

If your Toyota Tundra has an annoying squeak coming from the rear suspension—especially at low speeds, over small bumps, or when pulling into driveways—you’re not alone. Tundras are known to develop rear leaf spring squeaks as they age. The good news: you can fix it in minutes without grease, shop fees, or replacing parts.

The Spring-Things® Kit eliminates Tundra leaf spring squeaks fast using a simple, proven DIY solution trusted by truck owners across the U.S.

⭐ Common Tundra Squeak Symptoms

Tundra owners often report:

• Squeaking or chirping from the rear suspension
• Noise when entering or exiting driveways or parking lots
• Chirping sound at low speeds or when coasting
• Squeaks when hitting small bumps or rough pavement
• Noise that seems to come from the rear leaf spring area
• Squeak that is worse when the truck bed is empty

If your Tundra squeaks when you rock the truck side-to-side or bounce the rear bumper, the leaf springs are almost always the cause.

🔍 Why Toyota Tundra Leaf Springs Squeak

Tundra leaf springs squeak because:

• The individual leaves in the spring pack rub metal-on-metal
• Dirt, dust, and road grit collect between the spring leaves
• Factory pads and isolators wear out or fall out over time
• Temperature changes cause the springs to expand and contract
• Normal use changes bolt torque and clamping force on the pack

Spray lubes and grease may quiet the noise temporarily, but they don’t last—and they attract more dirt and grime.

You don’t have to just live with it.

The fix is simple and doesn’t require replacing the springs.

🛠 The Best DIY Fix for Tundra Leaf Spring Squeak

The Spring-Things® Squeak Eliminator Kit is designed to fit most 2.5" wide rear leaf springs found on many Toyota Tundra trucks.

Why it works:

• Creates a durable barrier between leaf springs where they rub
• Eliminates the metal-on-metal contact that causes squeaking
• Works without messy grease or temporary sprays
• Lasts far longer than lubrication
• Lets you keep your factory springs and hardware

If your Tundra uses 2.5" rear leaf springs, the kit is typically a direct fit.

⏱ Installation Time: 15–20 Minutes

You’ll need:

• The Spring-Things kit
• A floor jack and jack stands
• Basic hand tools (ratchet, sockets, or wrenches)

No special suspension experience is required. If you can safely lift the truck and tighten bolts, you can install this kit.

🔧 Compatible Tundra Trucks (Common Fitment)

The Spring-Things® kit is designed for Tundra trucks equipped with 2.5" wide rear leaf springs, including many:

• First-generation Tundra models with traditional rear leaf spring packs
• Second-generation Tundra models with rear leaf springs
• Later Tundra models that still use 2.5" rear leaf springs

The most important check is spring width—if your rear leaf springs are 2.5" wide where the kit installs, it usually fits.

📝 FAQ

Will this fix the squeak when backing up or turning?
Yes. Those noises are usually caused by the leaf springs shifting and rubbing against each other—this kit is designed to stop that.

Do I need to replace any parts?
No. The kit installs onto your existing leaf springs.

Will it work on lifted Tundras?
Yes, as long as the truck still uses 2.5" wide rear leaf springs in the factory-style location.

Is it affected by weather or off-road use?
No. Hot, cold, rain, mud, snow, and off-road driving won’t undo the fix.
