Loose front bumper

Does anyone have a schemmatic on the front bumper mounts. My car has been down for awhile due to a bum trans. and I take it around the block every couple of weeks just to run the engine.(and I miss driving her) The past couple of times a loud squeeking sound has been getting worse and worse. Pulled up on the front bumper and it is coming from the driver's side where the fender and bumper meet, just lower, maybe where they mount underneath.

I have my bumper and fenders off. Do you want some pictures? If so, from what angles?

Are you sure it's the bumper and not suspension?

Oh yeah. I can actually feel the bumper/fender raise 1/4 inch when I pull on it. I had the front end replaced last year after hitting a tire tread from an 18 wheeler. Body shop did pisspoor job, but my ins. wouldn't side with me on the deal though so I am stuck taking care of the small things.
