Interesting noise

I think this may be brake related, but maybe someone else has had this happen to their screw...

about a week ago I started hearing a squeak after I came to a complete stop and then started driving forward again. It goes away after I reach 35 mph+.

I went to a local shop and am pretty good friends with the owner, he took the truck in and let me watch as they inspected the front end brakes. They were pretty sure that my problem was in my slightly warped front rotor. Plus it didn't have enough surface left to "resurface."

Needless to say I put new front rotors on and the problem went away...until this morning.

It only squeak until 20 mph this morning...so when I got home I got out of the truck and it squeaked as I exited...so I went to the front driverside tire (side that was warped) and moved the tire forward, back, tried to push in and pull it toward me too. squeaked every move I made.

I just took all that apart to install new rotors, pads are practically new (less than 2500 miles). Could this be a bearing or something because I didn't take my truck into ford for the 45000 mile service. They lube a bunch of stuff in the front end and I am now at 51300.

Better yet, can I lube the front end myself? Or what are some ideas on where this anoying sqeak is coming from? I all ears here! Especially since I'll be doing 150 miles a day this whole next week.....

Thanks,
Justin
