    I have a squeak related to wheel rotation, and I'm having difficulty isolating it. It's independent of everything else - 2WD, 4WD, clutch in, neutral, any gear, any rpm, brakes, no brakes, aired up, aired down, forward, and reverse are all the same. The truck is a 2020 and has 37,000 miles, with 10% - 15% off-road. The last few thousand miles have seen some very dusty conditions. The linked audio file demonstrates this at different slow speeds.

    Any good suggestions on the cause? I pulled the front wheels and didn't see anything rubbing, and don't see anything contacting the drive shaft either.

    It's a shame that you didn't just attach the audio file rather than a link forcing us to download the file.
    Yes, it's a couple more steps for you, but I don't need odd files taking up space on my 'puter. You're the one seeking help - perhaps the extra step(s) are worth your time.
    If the squeak correlates with the speed of wheel rotation, it's probably related to brakes.
