Squeak

Whenever I hit a bump, especially on a turn, I get a squeak coming from the front end. Any thoughts on this? It’s been doing this before & after new shock installation, so that’s not it.

 

Does it sound like little birds in your engine bay?

 

No, you can definitely tell it’s coming from each wheel well area. More so the driver side. I’m going to start with the sway bar links & maybe the sway bar bushings to see if that changes anything. I did notice some grease around the links, as well as my ball joints. They are original (119,000mi)
Was curious if this was a somewhat common thing with these trucks or if anyone else experienced this…

 

I'd say squeaks in the front suspension are normal for any vehicle with almost 120k miles LOL

 

Yeah mine started squeaking at 145k

 

I am replacing all the bushings and ball joints with my lift so I’ll let you know if it goes away.

 

I plan on doing the same, but when the weather breaks. I’m not doing any of it in 20 degree cold lol. I’m ordering sway bar bushings, sway bar links, and I might get replacement lower ball joints w/ grease zerk
