I have the same problem on my 94. It started out just on one side
but now is on both. I plan on taking the suspension apart and
replacing all the bushings as soon as I get a weekend off. Hopfully
I will either find the problem or it will fix the problem.
I have spent some time with the truck up on stands trying to find it
with no luck. I can't recreate it while its on stands with just me
pushing and pulling on everything. Evidently only the weight of the
truck can do it. I'll keep you posted.
