Creaking Noise

I have this creaking noise when i come to a slow break. Doesnt happen when doing fast speed only when slow. Sometimes on corners but mostly when i come to a stop. And then when i go in reverse it makes the creaking sound.
I have put new heavy duty torsion bars so i dont think it could bee the bars.
Could it be my leaf springs? Its driving me crazy guys :?

i had a noise in the front of mine. Greased all the suspension points via the nippples, drove it around for 10 minutes and problem solved.

i greased all the nipples i could find and still creakes. The unis on the drive shaft are replaced. Could the leaf springs be the problem?

OK found the creaking sound. It was the torsion bars. Just underneathe the adjustment it was not greased. Aswell as when i put the new ones in i didnt keep the same adjustment as previos bars.
