I've heard of Death Wobble on the Ram's, but I've got Death Squeak. Anyone else got it?

I've chased the squeak all over the front end of my truck, lubed parts that seemed to be the culprit just to have the squeak go away and return later.

Although I seem to be fairly lucky in that the squeak will go away completely all by itself for a period of months before it returns.

It's starting to get squeaky again, just a little in the slow turns.

I swear there's a gremlin under the truck causing the noise and it knows when I'm coming for it and it hides

Has anyone successfully defeated their own case of Death Squeak?

 

i had a awful squeak from the auto trans linkage bushings.
under the drivers feet, where the up/down shift linkage changed direction to a front/rear rod. dry, cracked nylon bushings on the ends of that Z bracket. i put wheel bearing grease on them to shut them up.

also check shocks, ball joints, steering linkage, track bar, control arms, all rubber bushings, etc.

 

and the outer front axle u-joints.....

 

I have the same thing, comes and goes, squeak when turning corners, doesn't happen when going straight. sounds like its coming from front passenger side.

When it rains or i go through a puddle it goes away completely.

 

Then its exactly wat HeyYou said. axle joints. mine did the same thing till i replaced them. jack the front up and try seeing if u can wiggle them back and forth at all.

 

my truck sounds like a vacuum when i turn the steering wheel all the way to th e left O.o

 

On my truck it was the A arm bushings on the driver side. Exact same symptoms as talthyren described.
