So every time I go over a bump my left rear squeaks. Small slight squeak, like the shock or something. Anyone else have this problem??
Any help is appreciated.

Hey! I would like to like to into this squeak concern you’re experiencing with your Bronco. Could you please send over a private message with your VIN and the name/location of your local Ford dealer?

It is most likely coming from the hard top, and it’s pretty common. I also have the same issue but have yet to take any steps to fix it as it seems to come and go with temperature changes.

From some trouble-shooting other users have done, it could be either/both the rear posts the glass rests on when it’s closed or from the rear glass seal rubbing the tailgate. I believe I have read of others putting felt on the posts and/or a rubber dressing on the seal and it fixes the issue.

Im getting one too not sure if it’s left but it’s Definately in the back of my MIC’d Bronco. I was wondering if it was the hard top to the frame or if it was the tire carrier, Sasquatch package?

Get a friend to jump on the bumper repeatedly while you're underneath listening. Can't tell you how many times I've done this with my Jeep. I would quickly check the torque on the lower shock bolt, and the control arms both frame and axle side. Could be one of the bushings bound up ever so slightly. Spraying wd40 on a suspected bushing is a quick way to identify this and get you a few days of temporary relief from the squeak and the ability to pinpoint the culprit

That was my exact plan this weekend. Feels like, shock or coil, or control are bushing...... any way you slice it.... it's friggin annoying!

I have the same. Also lower left upper front, upper front left, lower front left, lower front right, right front lower left, tailgate, door, window, visor, softtop, plastic, well anything that is plastic, pretty much the entire truck squeaks. Check your tailgate though. Open and close it slowly and see it it's coming from their. I put in the RC tailage reinforcement and that fixed mine.

UPDATE: So my squeak was because when they were installing my new engine. They didn't put the screws that hold the exhaust bracket back in........ Makes you wonder what else they forgot!!!!!

My squeak in the rear of my 2 door was the plastic on metal bolt for the rear shoulder belt.
