BigJimny has had a squeaky front spring for a long time, a temporary cure is to spray lubricant onto the base.
When taking our Gen4 to bits to fit the lift, I noticed that the Suzuki springs I was taking off had nylon sheaths on the bottom coils which is clearly to stop this.
Is this a special sleeve I need to get or is it any old nylon sleeve?

Dreadnaught doesn't have any and I have no recollection of there ever being any but I too have a squeak on occasion so I'm interested to see what you find out.

That explains the tiny little squeak I get from the front driver's side!! It's only come about with the car having a chance to dry out in this nice warm weather. It's been driving me mad!

I'm thinking that I might get some plain tube and split it to make a trial before importing some from Murica.
