What is squeaking like an ...

old spring bed getting humped in? Driving me crazy every time I go over a speed bump. Shocks, springs, or bushings. Maybe all, I dunno. I have KYB AGX adj shocks, stock springs and bushings.

It's most likely the Lower Control Arm bushings.

FWIW, I squirted some WD40 on the LAC's and she's a helluva lot quieter. Still got some kinda spring squeak in the upper wheel wells of the rear.

check your bushings on top of your shocks in the back, every so often i have to put some white lithium grease on them and it makes the squeaking stop. for awhile!

my car does not start to squeak until I go over a few bumps. And once it starts to squeak it will squeak at idle sometimes. I put my car on a lift and messed with it a little with a friend of mine and we could not find anything. This noise is starting to get really annoying.
