This is gonna sound really dumb, but check your seats. I had an older truck that made a noise similar to what you are describing, drove me nuts for about a year. One day I was pulling the carpet to run some wiring and noticed the seat bracket was cracked........needless to say figured out what was making the noise. Ran a quick bead over it and no more squeak/chirping.

If that doesn't work see if this thread describes any of your issues...
