Squeaking
Ever since I lifted my 4runner around 3-4 years ago it started squeaking. Not bad but annoying nonetheless. I like to drive around with the music off, and lately the squeaking has gotten pretty unbearable. When I stand on the front bumper and bounce up and down I can hear a slight squeak. I sprayed all the parts with bushings down with White Lithium grease pretty thoroughly to no effect. It squeaks during points of acceleration/deceleration. I am willing to do/pay whatever to get this problem resolved, just don't really know where to start. Makes my 4runner feel cheap

TIA

What's your lift? Did you spray down the rubber parts of your shock/springs?

Bilstein 5100's with OME 884's front Superflex 2.0's in the back. And yes, I sprayed the top/bottom of the shocks/springs down pretty good.

Could be front ball joints, lower or upper. I had squeaking from my lowers when they went bad, it was annoying.

I also had squeaking from my custom rear sway bar links because the heim joint had corroded due to road salt.
