Symptoms of a bad strut mount?

Have had a annoying suspension squeak/chirp while going over bumps. I just replaced the sway bar end links and bushings, and the noise is still there. I just ordered new fe5 struts and control arm bushings and am trying to decide if I should order new strut mounts too since I am already going to have to take off the strut assembly. So if anyone could let me know what to look for to see if the strut mounts are bad I would appreciate it!

Thanks.

Also, the struts I have now are fe5 and only have 60k miles on them, should they already be going bad? They are lowered on B&G springs which are pretty hard on suspension parts.

leading control arm bushings? strut mounts are usually more of a clunk than a squeak.
