You could try putting some grease on the shock piston rod and spraying bushings and body mounts with a lubricant that doesn't damage the rubber.

Yep, also hit all the moving parts of your suspension, top and bottom of your springs, etc..

I just applied this stuff to the bottom of my 2014 RAM... it was pleasant to apply with a cheap spray bottle. I would bet it would quiet your squeek...
got it on Amazon

It started bothering me so bad I got the wife to stand on the tailgate and jump up and down. I suspected it to either be part of the suspension or one of the bolts holding the nerf bars on that may have come loose and was going metal on metal.

It turned out to be the parking brake line rubbing on the little bracket by the driver side rear wheel.

Not sure if this is what you're experiencing as well, but hopefully that helps.
