    Hey guys. I just bought a brand new 2013 TRD Sport 4x4 about 3 weeks ago and im having some issues with what i think is the front end squeeking. Id guess its either the shocks or the struts. It doesnt sound like its coming from the rear but the sound is alot like when the leafs in the back get older and they start squeeking when you hit some bumps or something. Its not making any noise that i can tell of when im driving on the road. But like when i drive in the yard or on something uneven it will make the squeeking sounds. Its nothing really really bad but its just more annoying than anything cause i know its there and i listen for it now! And especially since its a damn brand new truck with 2k miles on it. Im thinking ill just take it back to the dealer and have them look at it. I dont know if somethings loose or i just need new shocks or struts or what. I havent done anything to this truck yet except drive it around. Any thoughts?

    The ball mount does make some noise when I hit bumps and stuff but this is a squeeking sound. Ill give it a little more time I guess but I kinda wanted to do something about it soon cause I want to put a little lift, tires, and wheels on it. I know if I do all that and then take it to the dealer to see if they can fix it they will just blame it on me putting the lift on.
