Squirt the bushings one at a time. Or squirt the sway bar bushings and drive. See if that does it. Then squirt the control arm bushings. See what is squeaking.
Superman,
Did you have squeaking before? Have you cleaned all the grease off the front T-bars and checked for rubbing?
Squeaking is often caused by rubbing of the T-bar inside the control arm. For the fix see squeaky! front end
