Default Squeaky Coils?

I just installed a Teraflex 2.5 coil lift and have an unidentified squeak that started after about 500 miles (driver front). The squeak is there when I'm going over small bumps/road irregularities, but not with bigger bumps. It is there when I'm going straight. I just took off the shocks and swaybar disconnects and reconnected them after lubing everything up with Lithium grease. The squeak is still there. I think it may be coming from where the coil rests on the axel. Anyone have this problem? If so, any fixes?

oh yeah, and I changed into a coil lift from the TF BB and all of the components stayed the same, except for the coils. I didn't have any squeaking before for 15,000 miles

I has the same problem ended up being the sway bar links were a little to short and they squeaked. Disconnect your sway bar and see if it is still there.

Yup, disconnected them and it is still there.
