Squeaky bed?

I dunno if this is really a problem or not, but it just started happening recently. Whenever I slow down to a stop, the back end of my truck squeaks pretty badly. Something with the shocks maybe?

Pretacopower,
Here's a little trick to try that was just recently passed on to me regarding squeeks, and believe me I HAD multiple squeeks. I call it my "Stealth Mode". Take a can of WD-40 and spray all your rubber bushings, mounts, and dust covers (sway bar, idle arms, ball joints, shackles, motor mounts, shock rubbers, etc), the entire length of the inside of your springs and the spacers, torsion joints - just hit everything that moves, swivels, rotates, or compresses that you can find under your truck. I guarantee that your squeeks will be gone because mine all disappeared. Everytime you power wash the undercarriage of your truck you'll need to redo it again. Nothing like cruising in the "Stealth Mode".
