Are you sure the noise comes from your suspension? I bore a similar situation for weeks until one day I found out that the noise was coming from under my seat. I tilted the seat a bit and since then it has been quiet.

I had a similar complaint once. Does the problem only happen if the parking brake is on? I had to remove the rear left brake rotor. The tiny little shoes that sit inside the rotor for the parking brake were the problem. The backing plate wears and has that metal to metal contact giving a squeaking sound when you go to sit in the vehicle if the parking brake is on. I just used some white lithium grease on the backing plate and it took care of the problem. See if you notice your noise go away if the parking brake is not applied.
