i got around to lubing the hinges. a few drops of teflon lube and a dozen cycles later and the groaning went away completely..I just edited my last post about the dust. I'm out in the desert a lot and I don't have a tailgate seal so I'm guessing that's what's causing it. I noticed mine right after it rains but never after washing my truck. I too thought it was the damper and was spraying it down and it was still creeping. Gave the 2 hinge covers a shot and went away.
i lose cool points for
1) not doing this myself in the first place
2) not asking the forum before i called deezee
anyways. i guess the 'replacement' damper will be my hood ornament starting now.
