Random squeak?

Did my IFS 4 inch suspension life 6k ago and I'm now hearing a random squeak from some bolt in the front of the passenger side I'm just wondering what bolt I should check and crank down on.

Double check whatever bolts you had to remove and re-install for the lift, look for any marks indicating that a bolt is moving up and down or side to side (should have some sort of wear around the area.) Or just get some wd-40 and spray each bolt one by one until it goes away then bam you've found your culprit lol. OR you can just re-tighten every bolt on the lift.

Well I guess ill crank on every bolt to make sure they're secure. So nothing just falls off and I crash to my death

have some rock the truck back and forth to make the sound and then stick your head in the wheel well and listen for it
