Bump Stop Squeak
I have a 2016 F550 chassis on my Motor Home. It is only a 25' unit. Rear axle loaded weight 12,500#
At 42K miles the overload springs had begun to squeak terribly on the bump stops. The bump stops have very little wear.
The noise started 2,000 miles into a 3,000 mile trip. It is so loud that I would literally stop a few miles before the RV parks to spray them with WD40 to save the embarrassment.
I decided to purchase and install SumoSprings, "Super Silent" Bump Stops. $200 for these pads.
They are installed and I believe they LOUDER than the factory pads.
Does anyone have any clue what is happening here? I can see no reason for this.
Any ideas would definitely be appreciated.
