Message: Does andone know what could be causing my front end to make a sqweeking sound around and under 3 kms/hr (20 mi/hr) ? I dont have a clue what it would be, I took it to a shop... and the guys really didnt have any reasons... its a repetative sqweek. anyone ? Its on a 93' 4x4.
Message: Is it consistent with vehicle speed? I'd get your rotors checked out. Mine squeaks all the time no matter what, I've given up looking for it or even caring. As long as my temp and oil pressure are good, I just keep on truckin.
Message: Thanks guys, yea ive had it in the shop cuz i thought it might be the u-joints... came back that wasent the problem... as for the rotors ive thoguht about that too.... and thats my next check up... if i get around to it... thanks again
Message: Had the same symptoms on mine and it turned out to be sway bar bushings. The only way to check is to spray those suckers down with a lubricant and see if it goes away. It is a very common problem.
Message: Mine squeaked for a couple of years like that (at low speed) I found the problem when I changed my rotors a few weeks ago: the retainer spring on the outside of the caliper was touching the rotor hub just barely, at the central rivet holding the two spring pieces together. You could clearly see the rub mark around the hub. The new rotors had that area machined away slightly for improved clearance, leaving a visible step on the circumference of the rotor hub surface.
