Default squeak from passenger rear

Every time I go over a dam bump on the passenger side I get this loud squeak. It is so dam annoying, anyone have any ideas on where to look first. Mods are in my sig.

Your bushings might need some grease, especially the rear sway bar mount bushings.

I hope that all it is. I still have my stocker in there so it may just need replaced with something new and better.

Before replacing anything, use some marine grease to lube the sway bar bushings (on the axle, not the endlinks). My car's rear squeaked too, just lubed the bushings and good to go. If you have an extra set of hands, they can bounce the rear while you listen and feel for any vibrations in the bushings.

ya I have a friend that has a shop around me. We are going to be under the car, and just wanted some other opinions.

Hopefully that's it. I can't think of anything besides bushings that would sqeak when hitting a bump...
