Fixed my supposed problem. I overlooked something very simple yet critical.
Hope this helps you all.
After all I had done, it was only the torque rod bushings that needed greasing to stop all the noises. They are polyurathane, Duh! I feel dumb.
The shock absorber mounting points were not the source of all the noise.
My Gabriel Ultras are doing a great job. I did loosen and retighten the shock nuts/bolts for peace of mind. Sounds like I'm riding in a new car again. Whew!

I get myself in trouble by assuming. Better to recheck all previous work before accusing the most current job or parts.

Thanks for reading,
