well my truck has grease nipples probably because its lifted....new bushings maybe?
 






I posted a while ago with the same problem... it is indeed the sway bar bushings. I don't know if they can be greased, or if they just need to be replaced (I've been dealing with the squeaking for now).
 






Welcome to the forum! I would spray some white grease or something to that effect. See if it fixes the problem.
 






Welcome to the site. Yeah, those rubber bushings make a lot of noise sometimes. You can try some white lithium grease (if you can get it in there) and if that doesn't work you can get some new bushings and spend a few hours getting to know you truck more intimatly. There pretty cheap if you can do the labor.
