Default Tightening a suspension

For a while now my 97 Chevy Blazer 4x4, 4.3L squeaks every time that i go over a bumb, pot hole you name it. Lately it is getting worse and I am wondering what I should do to help fix the problem. Most of the work I try to do myself however I have never done a suspension b4. Any suggestions/experiences that you would be willing to share that would be awesome. Thank you

You're not alone. Start with a suspension lube job, then silcone spray every single bushing and rubber mount you can see including the body mounts. See if that helps.
