Default I had this noise too a while back on my nogaro and it turned out to be...

my 19mm swaybar. The "squeak" only happens when going over bumps but is also especially noticeable when going over railroad tracks. Re-lube the o-ring and you're good to go

Hope this helps bro!

I agree...and I think that this is especially true if you used urethane bushings.
