When I go over small to medium size bumps in the road at slwo speeds (when I can actually hear it) their's a squeaky/creaky kinda noise coming from the passenger rear suspension. I can't tell if it's the shock of the spring or somethgin else. Anyone else experience this? If so, what was the cause?

My 98 GT conv. does the exact same thing in the same exact place. I will be curious to see if anyone knows what this is.

This has been covered numerous times. It's something you'll have to live with but others have sprayed the suspension parts and the e-brake line with silicone lube to have temporary results.

Dammit! This problem is so common.
Go under the car near the rear tire. See where the e-brake hold down clamp is mounted to the bottom of the car. See the cable with all the wear on it? That's it! Remove the clamp, lube the line/tape it up, anything and re-install the clamp.

Dammit! I've never heard of it before and didn't know where to start looking for the cause so I asked! I'm beign sarcastic, but seriously no need to get upset. Thank you for the information. I'll look into what you talked about.
