Default help diagnose rattle please

I have noticed an annoying rattle/squeaking noise coming from the rear passenger side of the interior of my new to me GS. It only happens when going over rough road. It sounds like it is coming from the interior of the car, however I have no idea what is making the noise. My Stingray never had any rattles, but it also didn't have mag ride. Could this be one of the mag ride shocks I'm hearing? Anyone have this problem with a rear, passenger side rattle and find out what it was? Thanks in advance.

If you can, get under your car with a can of silicon spray & spray all the rubber parts you can see & most likely you will get rid of the squeak, concentrate on the sway bar bushings and end links, they will squeak when they dry out with age.
