🎥 Spring-Things in Action
This installation video shows how Spring-Things pads are positioned between compatible rear leaf springs to help reduce squeaks, chirps, pops, clunks, and banging caused by movement within the spring pack.
Most installations can be completed in approximately 15–30 minutes using basic hand tools, a floor jack, and properly rated jack stands.

TorqueNews Covers Silverado Rear Leaf Spring Noise
“My Chevy Silverado Had Annoying Clunk/Squeak in the Rear; Dealer Said to Tighten U-Bolts — Didn’t Work… So I Did This Instead.”
The TorqueNews article discusses a common problem reported by Chevrolet Silverado owners: clunking and squeaking from the rear suspension that may continue even after common recommendations such as tightening U-bolts or lubricating suspension components.
Spring-Things was created specifically to address noises caused by movement and contact between the individual leaves in an otherwise serviceable rear leaf spring pack. The pads create a durable barrier at the spring contact points instead of relying on repeated grease applications.
Read the TorqueNews ArticleHow Spring-Things Works
Traditional rear leaf spring packs contain several steel leaves stacked together. As the suspension compresses, rebounds, and shifts under changing loads, those leaves can move against one another.
When that movement creates unwanted noise, Spring-Things pads can be installed at compatible contact points to help reduce direct leaf-to-leaf friction and impact.
- Designed for squeaks, chirps, creaks, pops, and clunks caused by leaf-to-leaf contact
- Typical installation takes approximately 15–30 minutes
- No drilling, welding, or removal of the complete spring pack
- No wheel removal in most installations
- No repeated grease or spray-lubricant application
- Installs on compatible traditional rear leaf spring packs
Confirm Fitment and Diagnose the Noise First
Spring-Things universal kits are designed for many trucks with rear leaf springs measuring approximately 2.5 inches wide, but spring width alone does not guarantee compatibility. The spring-pack layout must also provide suitable installation points.
The kit will not repair noises caused by axle endplay, worn bushings, shackle binding, loose hardware, damaged springs, shocks, exhaust contact, drivetrain backlash, or unrelated mechanical problems.
