   Hi all, Im having trouble locating the issue, Everytime i go over a hump or a pot hole or an incline/decline there is a very loud squeek coming from the rear wheels, ive changed tyres/pressure ive changed the shocks with brand new ones took it too a garage who couldnt find any issues, has anyone got any ideas on what it could be?

   Plastic trim in the boot can make a squeeking sound.

   If the wheel isn't rubbing the inner arch, it could be the main axle bearings are drying up and about to fail and give serious camber y0

   Yeah the camber has changed compared to the other side its leaning in a little but thats been like that since it was lowered 10 years ago its only the last few months its started squeeking badly could possibly be the main axle bearings then

   Yes, highly likely.
   
   Take the wheel off and look at your inner arch, quite high up.
   
   I'm betting you will see some shiny metal in there where it's been polishing the arch.

   ARB end plates can also cause a squeaking noise as I recently discovered, I greased up the end plates and no noise since, but could also be the axle bearing if you are unlucky.
