Guys,

Have had an issue with squeaking for the last couple of months that has finally gotten to the point where I can't stand it anymore.

Squeaking coming from what I feel is the front of the truck. Over bumps - check, when turning the steering wheel when stationary - check, when entering and exiting the cab - check, when pushing the bed of the truck up and down - check, when pushing the hood of the truck up and down - check.

I have tried spraying all of the rubber suspension pieces but it does nothing. I really need to know what it is because it's extremely annoying!

 

sounds like bushings to be thats what im about to replace

 

It's your ball joints...probably uppers that do the most squeaking....if yours don't have the grease fittings replace them with ones that do

 

ball joints were done less than two years ago is it possible they have gone out again? Checking the work order it says they carry a lifetime warranty from Canadian Tire (I don't know why the previous owner would pay those thieves to work on the truck???). Can I replace them myself without too much trouble or should i just take it back to Canadian Tire and pay the labour?

 

I was told ball joints dont squeek

 

You were told wrong my friend....

As for the ball joints...have someone rock your truck back and forth...this should make it squeak enuff for you to get under there and pinpoint where it is coming from. More than likely it will be your top Ball joint making the noise. If not then replace whatever is....

 

Yes, balljoints squeak... one of my lowers was recently squeaking till I greased it... My rear leafs were also squeaking till I put some rubber in between em last year and it's still there working, no squeaks...

Shock bushings, sway bar bushings, sway bar links

any other moving parts... but the above named I would look into first...

Oh and let us know what it was when ya finger it out

 

please share when you know!, i have same thing, when ever i hit bumps/dips, its startin to get annoyin lol
