Default Squeaky suspension

So I've been wondering if there's any way to quiet my squeaky suspension? 99 vert with 40k mi. Is this just the way they are or is there a remedy? 😆

So far I've replaced the sway bar end links and bushings. Just wondering what else I can do.

Thanks all.

I would first try greasing the sway bar bushings with synthetic grease. Stopped the squeaks for me 12 years ago-

It could be the ride height adjustment bolts on each end of the leaf spring.
