Bad Squeak coming from the rear....
I have super bad rotational squeak coming from the driver side when I'm driving normal down the road, I checked the pads and rotors, there is some scoring in the back left where the noise is coming from.
Also whenever I go over small bumps it squeaks like an SOB I don't think it is related but I would like to solve this problem and would like to get any advice?
I have videos I will try to post.

I have a similar squeak and mine is coming from the Rough country shocks, they are worn out and the eyelets are worn out and you can actually see the eyelet of the shock move up and down on the bolt just from pushing on the spare tire. Thankfully I have a set of Fox 2.0's in the other room waiting for my RK 2.5 Lift!

I have old rough country shocks so that could be a huge possibility. Due you have any pics of the worn down section on them?

I have the same problem, it first started with front right side now all four, what is happening to mine is the break pads I bought either from Autozone or O'Reilly's Auto Parts, the caliper has rubbed the rubber coating off the pad, so now the caliper and the pads are metal to metal. What I did is put grease on the back side of the pad but this fix is only temp it'll help for only a month or so, today sense I got time on my hands due to a lay off from work I'm going to take them back for an exchange and hopefully I can find a better break pad to use. Because the original ones never made this squeak. The squeak goes away once the breaks are applied, but is more intense when the breaks are applied lightly

As you can see the metal shining in the sun light on the back of these pads. We'll on my way to see if I can either get my money back, exchange, or upgrade.
