mine does the squeak sometimes... someone told me that lowering springs can put bushings and suspension pieces at different angles than designed for. or maybe mine are just old and dry
That's only true, if you re-use the old bushings, and didn't torque them correctly; that is when the weight of the car is loading the suspension.. You never want to just tighten down suspension hardware and not re-check/torque it w/ the car in the air.. That's how you develop squeaks, and prematurely worn bushings/hardware..

And Brakes would be audible outside the car..

My other bet is that you have some interior pieces rubbing, or maybe something in your trunk, like your spare, squeaking around in the well (no carpeting)..

how can u tell if the suspension is shot if i got underneath and looked at it?
I had all brakes replaced and barings replaced on the rear axel less then 6 months ago, made the nosie before and after. So i know its not those.
Beast- what all did they replace?
