Squeak noise going over bumps - front right

Hey guys. I've noticed a squeaking noise that seems to be coming from the front right area of my truck. It is most noticeable at parking lot type speeds, when going over bumps. It sounds like someone jumping on a hotel bed with a squeaky matress. Anyone have this happen or have any ideas?

The reason I asked is I have a set of ToughCountry Running boards. I also had the same noise as you were describing. It turned out that the bracket was rubbing slightly on the body mount and making the noise. I couldnt reproduce it in my driveway, the truck had to be flexing slightly, like going over a bump or making a turn.

Just thought I'd ask.
