Subject:creaking coming from under pass seat area

Hi All -

Any ideas what might be causing this creaking noise from the area under my pass seat? Especially happens over like rr tracks and whenever the front end bounces. I did a search in the archives and it sounds like it might be the the upper ctrl arm bushings. What's weird is that  it has gotten more noticeable as the weather has warmed up (most said cold makes it worse.)

Is this something that can be remedied for a while by lubricating with grease or silicone spray?  What level of difficulty would this job be (in terms of replacement) for this  willing - albeit backyard mechanic?

thanks for input...

Scott K.
