I have been having a problem with I think my suspension. Everytime I drive I here a little squeking noise coming from the rear. I'll try to describe the noise the best I can, it kinda of sounds like foam rubbing a against plastic if you know what that sounds like. I appreciate any suggestions.

Had a similar problem, heard a mix between a squeak / rattle coming from passenger front wheel well.
Turns out one of the caliper bolts was loose.
I recommend you use a new brake hardware kit with each brake job. I applied blue loctite to my hardware on the last brake job but it wasn't strong enough to keep them tight, even when properly torqued.
A hardware kit is like $10 bucks... don't skimp on the cost. Do it right and use some thread locker.
Anything that has to be carefully torqued and is part of a safety system on your vehicle should receive your highest attention.
