E&E Rear Bumper Creaking

[ElJayBird]

Has anyone experienced creaking/squeaking from their E&E minimal bumper?

I’ve got a nasty groan/creak sound that I’ve been trying to track down and I think I’ve narrowed it to the rear bumper.

I’m going to drop it today to confirm but just curious if anyone has experienced the creaking, and if so, did you find a solution?

I had a BIOR front bumper on my 100 that was rubbing the fender and making a creaking noise. Lowered it by changing the mounting hardware to eliminate the rub and the noise.

I found it - it’s at the points where it contacts the frame. I put some nickel grease in all of those spots and the creaking is gone.
