I had a similar squeek coming from the rear and emptied a can of WD40 on them and it seemed to work for a period of time. May not be but its something to think about =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wd40 is good but washes away too quickly. try the lanolin for cheap and easy attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
