I have a 2000 ford ranger xlt, 3.0 flex fuel, extended 4 door cab, 5 speed. I started hearing a squeek in the rear end today so I checked it out.... One of my sway bar bolts on the left rear was a little loose so I tightened it up but was not the problem, I investigated further with pushing the truck up and down trying to find the squeek, I found that the squeek seemed to be coming from my driverside leafspring somewhere, I sprayed it down and took it for a drive to a gas station and it seemed to quite down some, but when I came out of the store I noticed my driver side rear was sitting lower then my passenger side rear, I have no idea whats causing it so I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas? I just replaced both sides hangers and lift shackles, rubbers in the leafsping and from the shackle to the hanger and double checked them and they still look brand new, both sets of springs look like the exact same thing, no cracks in the springs or anything so I'm stumped lol. Please help me guys!!
