    My Tacoma is at 8k miles now and it started with an odd concerning very audible double clunk at speeds 30-35mph. Now both somewhere in the front end makes an extremely loud squeak when I go over any bump at 1-5mph now. Idk if my truck is lemon or what but it’s super annoying hearing it everyday.

    If you’re living where it snows and it’s happening in the winter, it could be a sway bar bushing. Pay attention to the temperature when it’s happening colder days/warmer days.

    When you go over speed bumps, does the squeak happen on the front or back?

    just take it to the dealer, I had to have them replace my FR shock/strut on my truck with like 3k miles on it because I was getting the same sort of squeak on deep compression on the front suspension. Replaced under warranty, sent on my way and no issues until 5k miles when I ultimately put on my Eibach Stage 2 kit.

    far from a lemon, don't be so quick to go that route.

    Front radiator support bushings and/or the front strut assemblies. Super common over the years I believe even dating back to the 2nd gens

    My truck did that since it was new. I thought it was my body mounts. I even made a thread about it.

    After I switched my stock suspension to OME, the clunk went away.
