Q1: What brake pads are you guys using?
Q2: My truck squeaks... really bad... I get under it once a day and spray silicone lube on all of the front end bushings in the control arms, sway bar links, shock mounts, sway bar, etc. It stops the squeak for an hour or so, but then persists. Im pretty sure it is the control arm bushings. Has anyone ever replaced these? I always hate to take it to the stealer or mechanic. How bad is it?

why don't you try to spray silicone on one thing at a time so you can pin point the squeak.charlie

Well sorta, i narrowed it down to at least on bushing on either side, so i assume just replace them all while im there
