After I rotated my tires a couple weeks ago my front squeaks real bad. Every time the front end moves it makes an annoying squeak. I can stand on the step and bounce and it'll do it. I sprayed all the bushings with WD-40 but that didn't help any.

I went to my buddies shop And he said it was the bushings. How can I fix this squeak without dishing out 600 bucks for a neoprene bushing set?

 

I had the same issues and everyone told me it was the bushings so I would soak them with wd40 every other day or so. It ended up being ball joints. Replaced them and squeaks never came back.

 

That was my 98, not the 05 in my profile pic.

 

How much is it to replace ball joints?

 

$242.62 in parts from Napa and I did it with my brother so I'm not sure of labor prices.

 

its better to do them yourself if you can. if you take it to a place expect $600+. look around on forum or YouTube for a tutorial.

 

I dont care about labor charges, I do everything to my truck. I might lube the crap out of the bushings some more with oil. If that dont work I guess Ill be shopping for some ball joints. thanks guys

Been driving it a week to school like this and people are already starting to talk crap, so i just blast em with my horns.

 

everytime my front ends develop a squeak inject some grease through a needle and it works most the time lol. just gonna do that until they crap out on me

 

That's a good idea. I might try that

 

Lower ball joint for sure! I just did mine and its silent. Buy the good one tho don't cheap out there
