Squeaking coming from back after wheeling

[NC-Expy]

Seems like its only coming from the right side of the back. I sprayed the whole suspension with some PB blaster just now so we will see if that fixed it in the morning.

Any other solutions? It's annoying as hell going down the high way and going over speed bumps. I've only got 67K miles on it but I do frequent trail riding.

Nothing to do with brake pads. It is suspension related.

is it constant or only when you go over bumps it may be a shock or bushing

i read somewhere that its the spring not going back into the cradle. jack up the frame on the side thats squeaking. let the sus droop fully out. move spring where it goes. put back down. CARFULLY though. and if thats not it its the bushings on the sway bar. wanna see mine? they have hair coming out of them! haha

After pressure washing it and spraying more PB blaster on it the squeaking has almost faded completely but you can still hear it a little bit.

It was and still is only happening only when going over a bump, regardless of whether I am turning or not. It is also only coming from the rear right side.

I'm hoping it's something related to shocks because I plan on upgrading to some Rancho 2" lift shocks anyways.

Do you guys think I should get new coils while I'm at it?

Depends how it rides. Contrary to popular belief coil springs, and torsion bars for that matter do get fatigued, and not work correctly. Im looking for a heavy duty set of torsion bars for my expy i believe the 7700 ones, and im going to get the ones I can find with the least amount of miles on them if i cant get a good deal on some new ones
