so i've got KYB gas shocks and just stock suspension stuff besides that and my front passenger side suspension squeaks a whole lot. Not sure if its the shocks or if there are bolts that are loose that are making the noise or what but its really bad squeaking...any ideas?

The upper control arms get dry and are notorious for loud squeeking. You should see fit you have grease fittings there. They will be on the end of the shafts in the shock tower. If not, it is probably time to replace the shaft, and preferably, the whole arm which includes the upper ball joint.
Non-greasable ball joints dry out over time and will squeek. If/when you install new ones, get the sort that have a grease fitting so you can grease them when they squeek - or even before!
