Default Front driver side wheel squeek!

Front driver side wheel squeeks (sounds like rubber on metal) occurs louder when the front wheels are turned (not the tires rubbing). This is a stock 2001 1500 4x4 Offroad. I used the search function and found something about a seal(can't remember the name) that can be shaved, but can't find the thread again. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Jack it up and see if you get any wheel play. If you get any movement and the balljoints aren't moving, then you might have a bad hub. Mine sounded the same way and it was the hub.
