Squeak after Steeda Clutch Spring

[dafuture]

I'm getting a squeak with the pedal just off the floor when I'm using my clutch (post Steeda Clutch spring install). Anyone have any ideas? It's driving me nuts.

Happened to me as well. I removed the spring, used a generous amount of white grease on the perch, then on the whole perch+spring assembly, then put it back. That was ten months ago. The squeak hasn't returned yet.
It's the material the perch is made of. Delrin does tend to squeak unless it's thoroughly greased.

My standard perch pivots were covered (understatement) from the factory - other than the splodge I got on the carpet when I dropped it during removal, I left as much in place as possible and reinstalled it

I would normally like to have worked much cleaner, but I figured Ford added that amount of grease for a reason (unless someone was just having a bad day lol) so I left it on there as its hidden anyway.

Its been fine since

During installation, I took a Q-tip and transferred a bit of white grease from the old spring to new. No issues.

Good to know on the white grease - I'll try that ASAP. It's been driving me nuts. Thanks all (I'll report back)!
