Another questions. When I was looking around for the squeak I noticed on of the u bolts was broken off right at where the nut stops. My questions is when I go to replace the u bolt can I just unbolt the two nuts take it off and slip the new one on, or is there something I need to do besides just unscrew the nuts?

My rear suspension was doing the same thing and after spraying some lube on the spring joints, shock joints and shock shaft it quit. It does come back over time especially when I washed the under carriage.

I sprayed it all down with a pressure washer and i sprayed the leafs/shock bolts with lithium grease and the squeak stopped! So now i just have to fix the u bolt.

Wish I could see the video to see if its the same. I'm gonna try the pressure washer and re lube everything on the leafs, shocks and shackles.
