Gday all,
We pulled in to a caravan park in Busselton yesterday and i heard the one thing that i have dreaded pulling into a new spot, being that van that sounds like its wheels are about to fall off when you are backing into a site.:doh: I had not heard it leaving Perth (200kms away) or at anytime before that. We had the van serviced in Perth including bearings. The squeak was not a constant squeel, but a squeak once every rotation. I found it noticable when going straight not so much when turning. I dont believe it was the brakes as i was just at idle and slowing creeping down the park and not under brakes. I was hoping somebody may be able to suggest what it could be.
On another note i have also noticed the leaf springs are quite noisy aswell. I made the fatal mistake of spraying RP7 in there which fixed it until the next gravel road we went down. All the dust from the road was then caked all over the leafs now making them worse. Is there any fix apart from pulling them apart and cleaning each leaf independantly?
Thanks in advance guys.
Rohan
