Default 4.5" R.E. Long Arm Suspension Creaking

I have the R.E. 4.5" Long Arm Kit on my '07 JK Unlimited. It's been on about a year now, if I remember correctly. This thing is noisy, it creaks and squeeks when the front end flexes even just a little, and it even makes noise when I just turn the wheels while driving slowly around corners. Is anyone else with this suspension having this happen?

I've checked all the nuts and bolts and everything seems to be tight. Any ideas?

I left that up to my Jeep dealer when they serviced it, but I guess I should go ahead and do it myself to be sure. Can't hurt to add a little more if they did it.
