I had put an add-a-leaf on my Chevy ZR2 years ago. It also squeaked. At the edge where the add a leaf was hitting the main leaf it was pretty sharp- and you could see where it was rubbing. I used a grinder to taper the edge of the leaf so it would slide around better. Also put some grease on it also. Never had the issue again for the next 3 years or so I owned it.
