could you get a buddy to shake the car up and down enough to make it squeak while you put your ear down there and listen? Maybe two big friends XD

Maybe the shock tube itself, which unfourtunately is the strut. How about the anti-roll bar. They have bushings on them (to hold it to the frame) that get dry and cracked over time. Also, did you make sure you have the boots/bellows that cover the shock tube on the strut installed right. If they arent on right then moisture and dirt could get in there
