First:
Have you flushed the fluid and checked the screen/filters? If not, I suggest you do that first.
Also, what is squeaking? Our cars are meant to have the chassis/suspension/bushings lubed every 7500 miles, good chance it is not the hydraulic system itself.
Once you have done that, you can adjust the height of the rear suspension by adjusting a bolt attached to the actuator in the back.
