Default squealing

at lower speeds, when i turn it's makes a sqealing noise, left or right...normally on small turns, not hard turns. Could it be the lower lateral ball joints causing this? any help would be great, thanks.

fluid level and belt are good. it's not like a belt squealing type of noise..it's more like an old rickody door opening type of noise...i think that might be the best way to describe it..it also makes this noise sometimes when i am going slow and i hit a bump...only coming from the front

Could be one of your CV joints on the drive shafts.

Block the rear wheels, put it in neutral and jack it up till the front tire is off the ground then try turning the tire and see if it makes the noise or sounds squeaky....test each side left and right.

If it's not the wheel bearings or CV joints its definately in the suspension.
