Default RE: rear end creak

I'm not going to be 100% sure until I do it myself and get it fized but that's what I've heard from lots of people and a shop looked at it while I had it on a lift to fix an exhaust leak. (I am going to do all the work myself though, I just took it to the shop because my buddy worked there and did it for free) I also can't hear your car in person to be sure if it's the same sound. If I push down on my car, on the trunk, it will make that squeek. I also replaced my shocks and lubed up at the bushing on them and it still made the same noise.

I would pay someone $100 to get that fixed on my car. I switched out my shocks and springs and lubed up all 8 bushings for the lower and upper control arms, and relaced the upper ca's. I might just have to get the lowers now It might be that stabilizer thing?

Start with greasing the bushings. Check the top and bottom of your springs for rocks jamed in there right before the coil flatens out. Don't try to blead the stock shocks, it can't be done. If you've had an aftermarket exhaust installed look at where the pipes go over the rear end. If the tail pipes are installed 1/4 of an inch off the upper control arms will rub the pipes when you hit bumps and make a squeaking sound.
