Default Rear end creaks

When you push down on the rear end it creaks and squeaks on both sides


Is there grease points on the springs for the rear???

No. But there are anti-squeak pads between the spring leaves. Perhaps yours are worn out or missing?

Are your bushings (where the springs mount to the frame) worn out? Can you get a friend to push on the car while you put your ear close to the spring and determine exactly where the squeak is?
