strutmasters has the easiest solution. A complete strut and coil assembly that replaces the air ride struts perfectly

about 370.00 a pair delivered. Easy install three nuts and a bolt. In your case you will have to deactivate the light. I don't have the Air suspension but they are made to solve your problem.

The tie rods are not the reason you hear that creaking noise the reason you hear that creaking noise is because your sway bar bushings are shot and to fix that temporarily you could put white lithium grease on the sway bar bushings to lubricate them or to permanently fix it you could replace the sway bar bushings with after market energy suspension sway bar bushings instead of the factory kind of bushings because the factory ones dry up too easily and then they will start to squeak again and then your problem with the squeaking is back again so go and buy some energy suspension sway bar bushings online for about $15 to $35 and then you will never have that problem every again.
