I have a horrible squeaking noise coming from the left and right side of the front of my truck. I have a 1997 Ram 1500 318. It does when turning and going over bumps. Has anyone had this problem? What did you do, and what would you recommend?
Thanks
PS I am about to buy tires. What size do you recommend to fill out the fender well. I have stock rims and plan on keepin it that way.

 

The squeaking noise could be a NUMBER of things. I have a squeak that I still can't find in mine also. Check the ball joints, all the suspension bushings, front axle joints if you have 4x4, battery hold down, shocks and mounts, etc. I have the stock size 265 - 16 tires on my 4x4. I think you can get 285's on one with no lift, but your speedometer will be off and your already crappy mileage will get worse.

 

you need to get a grease gun and shoot some grease in the zerk fittings. that's the problem i still have yet to do it. if you let it go too long you'll have to do a lot of work replacing the suspension. weekend plan... get a grease gun and shoot some grease.
