Possibly anything that moves.... shocks, springs, etc. Have someone else bounce the truck, while you crawl around looking.

Wasn't rear leaf spring squeak a common complaint that dealerships got?
Was there a TSB on it?

Going to 2nd that, mine does the same thing. Shoot some lithium grease in the bushings and noise goes away.
