Default Full Traction Ultimate 3" Lift

I just ordered a Full Traction 3" High Ultimate Lift and M Force Gas Shocks too from Northridge4x4.com.
After going on the So Cal Run Memorial Day weekend run and partially removing a couple of fenders I decided to get it.
New Toys!!!

Trail Bud, what are your plans for the installation? I'll be ordering the same lift next month and would like to assist with an installation before trying my own. If you're looking for an extra set of hands let me know.

Is it coming from the front or the rear? If it's the rear, I'd bet it's your axle mount shock bushings. Add a little white lithium grease to the face of them and then make sure to tighten them down to 75 ft. lbs. of torque. That should take care of it. If it's up front, does it creak all the time, only when you start/stop, go over bumps, etc? This one could be a few things.

Is that an educated guess?

Even when I've had the flu I don't believe I squeaked!
