No downside ... Let us know if it resolves it ... Sometimes it is from the cap at frame top as well but we have some that don't do that as well

During my last trip in August my Unaweep started squeaking quite a bit from high up the frame, near my head. Couldn't tell if it was from the crossbar or from the top pockets that hold the frame ends, possibly rubbing against the load-lifter straps?. Anyone experience the same thing? Any recommendations?

It is probably the rubber cap used on the frame. We have another that I don't think will do it . You can call and we can ship a couple out to try

Took the frame apart and cleaned it, then sprayed on some case lube and let it dry.
Squeak is gone, frame rotates smoothly at pivot.

Just like new.
