Default 2012 G29 rear squeal/squeaking

When driving the cart I am hearing a squeaking or squealing coming from the rear of the cart. Seems to be related to suspension as it doesn't appear at low speeds on perfectly flat pavement (my driveway) although it will appear on relatively flat surfaces. Just replaced batteries and looking to lift the cart now, but need to address this issue before putting money in the wrong place first.

Side note, I do have the 2 passenger rear seat installed but I cant remember how long its been making the noise for. Not sure if this is contributing to or relevant to the noise...

thanks guys!

Try and record a video and put it on YouTube. Going to be hard to help diagnose without some sound to hear, or more information on the location.

Might check the axle hub nuts. There is a steel collar between the hub and the bearing. If you reach in and try to turn the collar and it moves, that can cause squeaking. Just a thought.

Did you look in to the stuff asked? Any new intro. If anything jack the rear end up and press the gas and see if you can pinpoint it better

I drove it yesterday and it seems suspension related, but I didn't have my phone on me to record it. I will try today...
