horribly annoying squeaking from front end
for a while now my truck has had the most annoyingly loud squeaking noise from the front suspension. put new ball joints(upper and lower, both sides)............didnt help, new shocks.........didnt help, sprayed the control arm bushing, tie rod end, etc down with wd-40 and other stuff a few times..........didnt help. It squeals a bit when turning and squacks real bad and kinda loud when the suspension moves any. Any ideas guys as to what it could be??

i had a wheel bearing go out not too long ago and it made some god awefull noise, got worse with turning but i'm not sure as to the suspension thing..... i heard mine at a wayside rest and didn't realize what it was.... needless to say it went out on the interstate. just a thought......

Mine was squeeking at the control arm bushings. I used a rubber lube I got at one of the auto part stores years ago and it eventually worked. It was in a clear squeeze bottle and yellow in color. The paper label wore off years ago and I can't remember what it was. But it worked.

There was a recall on a squeaky steering column that involves replacing a bolt in the bottom of the column with a shorter one. There's a part number and everything. I don't remember where I saw that. Maybe Geno's?
