I wanted to ask what you guys would do to lube the springs without removing them from the car. I just got her running and I would like to be able to drive her for the summer before really tearing into the springs and removing them.
So this would be a temporary solution.

I was thinking I could unload each side at a time and either spray Slip-plate, or some type of PTFE Dry Teflon Lubricant on and in between the leaves.
Which would be better?

I have been spraying them with PB blaster to get them moving and that worked really well.

Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks
