Rythmic squeak ... meaning repettative while driving? Coulda bent an axle shaft and the wobble is the result of rotor wavering due to the bent axle making contact with brake pad / wear indicator. Real common especially after a hard hit and 35"+ tires.
Or is it a Giggle squeak like something rubbing against something else when vibration from a bump happens?

I am wondering if I have the same issue. I get a rhythmic squeak right as I am coming to a stop that sounds like brakes but my rear brakes an rotors look fine. Wonder if the rear is bent? Only happens right before a stop..

I recently all of a sudden have the same issue. Squeak, Squeak, squeak...Brakes seem fine...I'm running 285/70R17 Duratrac's which aren't too unbelievably heavy. Seems to only be from the driver's side rear.

check for rub marks on your track bar against your springs... i had this problem with alittle less lift than you have...
theres a company that makes wedges that solved the problem... i also turned the drivers side track bar bolt around the opposite way.
