creaks

I have a RE 5.5 Short arm kit and it is starting to creak pretty cloud when I put on the brakes. Ive lubed it up but it only stays quiet for a little any advice.

yeah but just because you lubed everything doesnt mean that he checked everything. ok sorry... get under there and check your control arm bolts and the drop brackets... take the 5 lug nuts off the front wheels and take the wheel off. then check your calipers and make sure everything is tight. while your under there check the axle u-joints and see if there is any play in that. i guess i should have asked what you already looked at.
