Left front squeek
Left front squeek
Whenever i start moving there is a squeak coming from the drivers side front tire. Its not when I use the brakes, but whenever im moving at somewhat slow speeds. Although its prolly happening at high speeds also i just cant hear it over the tires. Is this most likely a bearing issue. If so do I need to replace the bearing or can i just lube or grease it. Its getting pretty annoying and i want it gone!
It could be your ball joints as well, another thing I would check is the upper control arms. I was going down a gravel road a few weeks ago and my truck developed a similar squeaking. I looked around and found a rock stuck in one of my upper control arms.
Yep pretty sure thats what it is, I got pretty muddy a few weeks ago and im guessing theres a rock in there somewhere. I just have to wait till the rig gets back from the oil change and ill dig it out of there
yea probably a ball joint that went dry or bad. Hard to get it to squeak or rattle when it has weight on it. jack the front up off the ground with the suspension hanging then take a long bar put it under the wheel and lift up. You'll find it then. If it's bad it'll make a knocking sound if it squeaks just get a injector on a grease gun and lube away.
Here's what I use and it works great just using your foot to press down forcing the other side up:

it's a Stanley wonder bar
