I've got a suspension squeak that's driving me nuts. It happens when the suspension loads/unloads when going over bumps. It seems to be coming from the driver's side front suspension.
I took a can of white lithium grease and sprayed down everything that moved both front and rear about a week ago. That virtually eliminated the squeak, but it returned in full force after a day.
Since then, I've been spraying individual components with PB blaster and then driving to try to isolate the source but I haven't been able to replicate my previous results.
I'm gonna continue the "spray and pray" method, but was hoping you guys could give some insight about common sources of squeaking or any advice you have for me.
Thanks!

Get a grease gun and lube everything with a grease fitting.

Next is getting your hands on things, feel if there is any play, movements, rotation. I had the same, and eventually found my upper control arm bushings being worn and have play. In my case, it only occurred when warmed up, to make the diagnosis more challenging.
Mine did the same, going over bumps, so replaced the shocks...which didnt fix it. Thats how I found out....get under there and take a small pry bar with ye.

Are you sure its coming from the front and not the exhaust?

Sway bar bushings, control arm bushings, track bar, exhaust, or rear brakes out of adjustment are pretty common issues.

Possibly the heim joint on the track bar since it's on the driver's side. Maybe clean it and then coat it in some nice grease that will stick there for a while as opposed to spray lube that can dry up and fade quickly.
