NOISY front coilover post brake service

I've gotta FB ('84 GSL-SE) with crappyRE-SPEED coilovers/camber plates/Tokiko Illumina's up front. Been having problems with brakes since recently getting her out of winter storage...Sat. I drove to my "repair spot" ~45miles away and had all four corners up in the air with all wheels off. I had the rear supported with jack stands under the rear shocks, and the front with chunks of 4"x4" oak under the control arms, close to the inner lips of the front wheels. The front was only unsprung for ~1 minute while I jacked it up under the 'fore engine cross mount, then put the blocks under the control arms. After I was done messing around, and put the wheels back on, and put her back on the ground, the pass. front suspension makes horrible; Squeaking,Groaning,Shrieking, noises with ANY front suspension movement at ANY speed...What would cause this? What can I check? After driving ~50 miles like this, it hasn't gone away.
