Why does my front end make noise? Squeaking, creeking, rattles and knocks. it's a 03 ram 1500 4x4 reg cab ,18000 miles, 3.92 gears ,aftermarket 20x10 wheels ,275/60 tires, i had nerf bars but took them off. if you need more info just ask
thanks in advance

are the 4x4's on front leaf springs, coilovers, or normal IFS? I'd look at any bushings first. Sounds like they haven't been greased.

Might want to lube the swaybar and endlink bushings. That's a good bet for the sqeaking sounds. Good luck.

Is that something I can do? If so, how?
