Default strange noise from brakes

I had occasion to hit the brakes hard in my '03, and the front tires chirped a bit and then there was a "sproing" sound, sort of felt it in the pedal too. Is this normal, the truck brakes fine but when you slam on brakes it sounds sort of weird.

I guess you can tell that I have been driving some OLD pos trucks before this one!
