Strange Squeak in front end over bumps.
Well we live in happy pot hole hell Michigan and over the last few weeks I have been chasing this very very annoying Squeaky Rattle that is driving me nuts!
Its only over bumpers and I thought I nailed it down when I took the Center cap from the wheel off and switched with the other side. Squeak was gone for about 30 miles. Now its back! I have jacked the truck up and there is little to no play in the hubs the brake pads all look good and are tight in the Caliper.
Im thinking we need ball joints soon as they have started to pop or creak how every you want to put it when we go over big Dips or up our drive way (Its a dirt drive with a huge hump at the bottom of it like a speed bump)
Has anyone else had this kind of issue?? Its about to drive me bats!
Oh I should also add its not there when its raining !!
After reading all this stuff about ball joints and popping and squeaking noises I am prone to say thats it but. But man I have never had anything sound like a tweety bird chirping like this and have it be a ball joint or anything like that.
Your help and info will be a big help in finding this short of a Monkey on a string off the side of the truck
