Interesting. I’ve had a popping/cracking noise as well. The dealership replace my leaf springs and the noise went away. Now the noise has returned after about 4 months. I’d like to swap them out for some steal springs but I’m not sure if the design of these trucks with the mono springs is able to take a steal spring.

Do you or anyone on the forum know if you can replace these leaf springs with a steal leaf spring?

Thank you for sending these pictures. When the dealership told me they were replacing the inserts I figured it would of been part #9, #11, and #6 due to this not being a standard steal leaf spring, I looked under my truck once I picked it back up from the dealership and it looks like they didn’t replace them at all, still showing signs of dirt/salt due to these lovely Michigan roads.

The dealer mention they would replace the inserts and go from there. I have reason to believe nothing was replaced and the u-bolts were just torqued again. So they fed me a bullshit story and didn’t do anything.

I’m thinking it could be the bushing located at the ends of the spring being there is no insert noted in that picture. I have an open case at the moment with GM about this issue. Can u include the link to that picture so I can research the spring more?

Single mono, I uploaded another video because I didn’t know if the first post worked lol

New to the forum. I purchase a 22 Sierra that also had these springs, when exiting my drive way I get this loud cracking/snapping noise from the passenger side. Can anyone explain this? Trucks had multiple visits to the dealership, torqued U bolts, replace leaf spring inserts, no fix.
