I had a real nasty squeak over speed bumps, mine ended up being the sway bar to chassis bushings. Just get a buddy to push down on the fender while you listen for where the sound is coming from.

Bushings tend to squeak as they get old and dry-rotted. Could be coming from anywhere, but sway-bar busings, LCA, and PHB bushings are the most likely.
