more than likely it is the bushings. could also be the springs (2 wheel drive) or shock mount bushings possibly. i think 4x4 has torsion bars so maybe it could be them too. try isolating it by spraying some silicone on the bushings and see if it still squeaks. then try the springs if you have them or torsion bars, and try the shock mount bushings. let us know how you make out.

soap solution works much better to stop the squeeking. Silicon does not seem to help at all.
