Hey cool I don't have to use the search function anymore!

I'm noticing the same thing. I've seen others here comment on it as well. My theory is that the numerous polyurethane bushings tend to squeak. Some of these are greasable like the ones in the upper A arm. I suspect that you could pack lithium grease into a variety of them. Good luck on getting it to stay in place - some of these go underwater every time you cross a stream and basically all of them get powerwashed every time you clean off after a muddy outing. These bearing spaces are not sealed in to capture and retain grease.
On the other hand, they really aren't highly mobile. Only small amounts of movement happen at each one. The upper A arm probably goes plus/minus 20 or 30 degrees max. The bottom of the shock rotates a bit on it's hinge bolt and moves maybe 10 degrees back and forth, max.
I just check on it every now and then to make sure the parts haven't moved relative to eachother. I'm accepting the squeaks, for now.
Did you get the adjustable external reservoirs like I did? If so, how many "clicks" are you running on the front and on the back?
