Default shocks or springs, which one of these makes a squeaky noise when you push the car up and down?

My car squeaks whenever I go over any bumps or if I push it up and down from the sides. I have tokico blues with H&R race 2.2 drop springs from a civic
Actually my question is, Is it the shocks or the springs that are making the noise?

thankyou

yeah, I think the gerbils are losing oil pressure.. check your vacuum connections.

Mine is doing the same thing. It was the front upper control arm bushings. and the rear sway bar bushings. Anyone know where to get a good deal on stock suspension bushings.

I just redid my front suspension. replaced the springs & struts (eibachs & stock) and all the bushings and ball joints and it squeaks now. I guess its just one of those things.
