Why Would Pop Up Camper Suspension Squeak
Updated 08/15/2025 | Published 07/22/2025
Question:
I have a 2007 Starcraft pop up camper. It has been squeaking over bumps on the road. I may just change the bushing and see, but Id like to probably just replace both 3 leaf springs since theyll be off. Unfortunately, I am having difficulties finding a replacement. I measured 19 1/2 length from eye to eye and 2 width for the 3 leaf springs. I am not finding that one your website. Either this is a rare leaf spring or Im measuring incorrectly. VIN is 1SAAS01E581AH5039. Thoughts.

Hey Kyle, that is a leaf spring configuration we do not carry so we can't help with that. You might even try just greasing your bushings and see if that makes the noise stop. Most likely you don't have self lubricating bushings so they sound like they might be a little dry. Try that and let me know if that fixes the problem.

Hey Kyle, did greasing the bushings help with the squeaking noise on your camper? I'm curious to know if that worked for you, as it might help others with a similar issue.
