Let us know if replacing them gets rid of the "cricket" noise [8D]

 

Did anyone ever figure out the cause of this? I have a 2001 dodge ram 1500 4x4 ext cab and it sounds JUST like crickits under my truck when im driving. I was told it could be the brakes but i have replaced the front brakes recently and now it sounds like it has gotten worse. In all fariness i didnt change my rotors when i replaced my brakes but this noise is driving me crazy im worried my wheel may fall off or something! HELP!

 

What do your ball joint's look like?

Edit: This is a really old thread ya'll.

 

Yea I found this old forum didn't know where else to look. Ball joints have a little Play in them I will be starting with these this weekend to see where it goes from there.

 

Remove the front drive shaft and see if the noise goes away.
