    Don't know how else to explain it. When I turn going slow (like in a parking lot) I get a kinda squeaky rubbing sound. It sounds like it is from the left side but I can't swear to it, going out later this evening to try and trouble shoot. Any ideas what it could be? It just started a day or so ago.

    About a month ago I put billies on the front and rear with the front at 2.5, not sure if it could be a factor or not.

    Do you still have the stock spring pack in the rear? If so, try sitting on the tailgate a few times. If the springs squeak, then that's your problem.

    I've had that squeak before. It's not the same. It's almost like something rubbing a bit when the wheels turn.

    It sounds like the brakes are rubbing??? Can this happen randomly? Could diet be stuck in them or something?

    Mines doing the same thing lately. Noticed it today in 4lo first when i would turn the wheels. I can hear it now in 4hi and 2hi. Sounds like the driver side front brake. Checked the hubs after doing some good pavement miles. None were unusually warm. It was weird seeing this thread tonight.
