Rear End Squeaking, Help

For some reason my rear end started squeaking I can't tell where in the rear end it's coming from though. I just replaced the shocks that were blown, but that didn't help. I am thinking it might be the leaf springs? or do I need to grease something in the suspension, or are there some bushing I need to replace? The squeaking is driving me NUTS

It could possibly be the leaf springs

I sprayed the leaf springs with WD-40 and that didn't help any. Did I miss some grease fittings in the rear?

Is it squeaking when you turn or go strait?

I had that problem. I replaced all the rubber bushings with urethane bushings. Get under there and check the rubber for dry rot & dont forget the body mounts.
