Disconect the sway bar mounts at chassis, move sway bar rubber bushing aside and lube with white lightning spray grease. Reconnect and most likely the noise will be gone.

I installed a pro comp coil spacer lift and have clunk on the passenger side rear. I know have a squeak/creak in what sounds like the same fender well. Can't find either one, it's driving me crazy

yeah i checked my drag link and it seems that it is more loose than normal. I can grab the bar and jiggle it, and it seems to make the same type of noise as i mentioned before.
