i'll usually brush a bit of silicone paste on the spring pad where the edge of the springs sits in and smear a bit where the pad is in contact with the perch. when you put them in dry, occasionally (not always) you'll get the spring making a groaning noise as it's trying to shift the pad.

for what it's worth, pelican sells a cheap little tub of suspension grease that's heavy and perfect for the application. less is more. dab a couple spots on the parts and spread thinly with finger. should do the trick .
