Get someone to help you. get a long screw driver or a long ratchet extension, You lay on the ground under the front of the car and with the screwdriver/extension stuck in your ear ( don't put the pointy end of the screwdriver in your ear) place the other end on parts that you think are squeaking, Have the other person move the car up and down, it will come across loud and clear in your ear when you hit the squeaky area.

That's a great trick I've used for years. People will look at you like you've lost your mind, but it does work.

I'd start with the spring perches, they are your most likely source of the squeak.

Do you part at a time. That will nail down exactly what it is. Customer brought in his car a few months ago with the exact same problem. except he hose it down with a lubricant, and then asked me to find it when it was quite. DOH lol. He brought it back later when it was making noise and it was the perch.
