I get so frustrated with it that I was debating taking it to the stealership to have it looked at, that way if it isn't fixed the first time I can take it back and make sure they do fix it.

turns out there were about 3 bolts missing holding the outter fender and inner fender well together, and several others that were loose, enough to allow it to shift and squeak when I hit a bump. Now a feel a bit dumb for spending the money I did on the suspension and whatnot. Well at least I don't have to worry about those things for a while. Gonna go out and double check all the nuts and bolts under my hood now...make sure everything is tightened up.

good to see you got it figured out, i'm sure the money wasnt wasted, 10 years is along time for rubber to last in suspensions, they were probably wore out anyway
