Whole suspensoin sqeuaks like a car from the 60's
Car is only 11 years old but the whole suspension has been squeaking bad lately. like even when i get in and out of the car it squeaks. is there some sort of special lubricant i need to put somewhere in the suspension ? Thanks.

the "whole suspension" is very vague.....find out where the squeek is coming from and spray some CRC on there or some white lithium greese

Yes, locate the squeak fist, then you can determine how to adress it.

My entire rear suspension is polyurathane, and I get "squeaking" also, I use a special synthetic grease (do not use regular grease on poly), and it will quiet it down a bit.

120k miles. The squeaking isn't ALWAYS there, it kind of shows up after driving the car for 20-30 minutes. It's hard to locate but i would say it is coming from both the rear and front near the shocks/springs. I do have subframe connectors and LCA's, could this be the problem?

There are multiple thinks that can squeak front and rear but shocks and springs are least likely. In the rear there are the lower control arm bushings, sway bar links and sway bar bushings. In the front upper controla arm bushings, lower control arm bushings sway bar bushings, sway bar end links upper ball joints, lower ball joints.
You might start with a good quality silicone spray and shoot all the bushings well on both sides.
