Squeaky Rear Enf

For some time now I have been trying to isolate an embarassing squeak coming from the rear suspension.I have applied silicone lubricate to the many rubber bushings that I can get to...but still squeaks. Is it possible that the shock absorber is the culprit? Also when I goover a bump, the rear wheels land with a "thud", it is as if there is no dampning when the shock extends. Any ideas?
