I own a 09 mustang, and the issue I am having (as stated in the title) is the rear end squeaking.

I don't hear the noise when I am stopped. But as soon as I take off and the back end drops you hear a loud creak or squeak. And when I'm driving is more of a squeak. Took it to the dealership they said that the rubber bushing are dry and cracked. But I'm not 100% sure, anyone else have this issue?

I am having the exact same thing, but in a 2008 GT. I took it to two places. First, strangely, said replace the clutch. Didn't smell right. Second opinion said it is the U-Joint. The problem is, they told me there is no available 2008 GT U-Joint available--that a DriveLine company would have to make one from scratch.

That's about the only thing that's gonna squeak under suspension osculation. Upper, lower control arm bushings or shock bushings.

Possibly check your rear support braces? They flex with the unibody construction & give as they deteriorate. Just another possibility?
