Take them apart, clean them and check for witness marks of where they are rubbing internally. Rectify any dents in the covers.

Reassemble in reverse order of dismantling, cross fingers ..... :-)

Just install open megaphones and you won't even hear the squeaks, just joking :-), listen to the G-Man. Cliff
