The shock upper mount might squeak if it is not properly installed.   
You could
spray with some of the rubber lube common around tire/suspension shops  
to
verify where it squeaks.

The rear camber adjustment arms are prone to squeak also with the  
aftermarket
much worse.  A similar spray on the bushing could help verify.
