What! nobody answered!?
That's unusual for this forum.

If the squeak only happens when the car is parked and you bounce the rear up and down, then it may well be in need of a handbrake system overhaul.
Basicly, rust to rust mating surfaces have developed inside the handbrake drum and they need a clean and re-grease.

If it squeaks while driving, the top shockabsorber bushes are the most likely culprits.
HTH.

If you spray each bush in turn with WD40 and then bounce the car you should find it that way
