squeaky rear sustension.

I just realized that my rear suspention is extremely sweaky when i "rock" or "bounce". it does not feel blown at all. responds very well and even after good bit of bouncing it, as soon as you stop bouncing it the car stops bouncing almost immediately. THe sound is pretty lud and annoying. Would anyone knoe what is causing it?

thnks.

shocks rubbing?
rubber bushings?
subframe mountings?
could be a number of things, might just be a process of elimination.
I would hazard a guess at the upper half of the shock cover rubbing against the main body of the shock absorber.......maybe.
I would get the car over an inspection pit and get underneath while someone bounces it for you see if you can pinpoint the noise.

hmm good idea. basically what i just did was take off the rear tires and poured oil on the bottom part of the big spring, as well over some other balljoints and stuff, stopped ssqueaking completely, so i gues its all good
