crawl under there and unbolt the shocks. let them hang loose so they dont touch the rearend. bounce the truck and see if you still have the prob. my truck did this after i lowered it. i went through every thing and found nothing but forgot the shocks. if it is the shocks than take them off the truck. but i can not remember if you can take the rubber inserts out of the factory shocks? but that is what needs to be greased. try that

mine just recently was making noises from the rear end. not sure how to describe it. maybe a combination of sqeaks, whining, metal rubbing kind of sound. plus a little vibration. i took it to the dealer today and they replaced <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" /> both front and rear u-joints. works fine now. just a thought.

Same here, it was my u-joints making the squeaking sound. they were just about rusted solid, all the grease in the world wouldn't have helped.

Default rear end squeeking

My girlfriends truck makes a pretty bad squeek in the rear. Any of you have this problem or have gotten it fixed. Took it to dealer and they lubed and tightened everything but didn't help. Thanks
