If its the front suspension, i managed to cure mine, by taking off the top shock mount bolt, then pull out the plastic insert and bit of rubber i think, grease it up with wheel bearing grease and put it back together. stayed nice and quiet.

I've also got the squeeky front suspension. When I get the chance, I'll have to try your method Jason. Also condolences about your dad.
