Default Extremely annoying body creeking!

I have a 2000 Camaro z28. When I am cruising around and hit little bumps in the road i have this extremly annoying body creeking goin on that sounds like it is in the area of the left sail panel or even further back. Anyone have any idea what it could be? also the interior is out of the car as i am doing sound deadening throughout the car but cant deaden this one....

If it's the rear suspension:

Jack the car up, put it on jack stands, take off the wheels.

Take your jack and then put a load on the rear-end suspension, you can make the rear do a full travel, try to listen to where the creak is coming from.

Then fix the creak as you see fit if you can identify it.
