Loud creaking from front suspension

Anyone else have a loud creaking sound coming from the front suspension on the Ford class A Motorhome chassis? Ive sprayed the leaf springs and links and still cant find it. It only makes noise when going over rolling humps or using leveling Jacks to raise the front, etc. Sounds like a dry socket/joint.
I have a 2019 FR3 on the Ford Chassis.

Check the bushings in the sway bar Ford bushings are not the best. You can lub these to eliminate the noise if they are the cause.

Yes, typically the bushings on the sway bars.
