So, Wednesday driving through town I heard this rotten squeak every time I hit a small bump or divit in the road. It went away over 25mph and this morning it went away completely and I drove about 150 miles trouble free. I went out to grab a soda and a PowerBall, and the front end started to creak just pulling back into my drive (which is a sloped hill). I applied the brake, and when doing that the squeak came back every time I changed brake pressure or put the truck in park and let it lurch forward. I went for a short test drive, and it seems to dissipate after 25mph but it does squeak loud enough to be annoyed with the window down in neighborhood traffic, and when I pulled into my driveway, interestingly NO SQUEAK! It's really, really weird. There's no wheel wobble either and it tracks straight and true at 80mph.
Recent New Parts:
December 2016- Upper and Lower Control Arms
January 2017- Lower Ball Joint-Passenger Side
March 2017- Front Struts with Springs (Used Low Mile Units)
Last Weekend- Endlinks.
Lastly, the truck is a touch off camber in the front after the shock install. I will not be able to have it aligned until a week from Tuesday, I can't assume this really has to do with it though. Also, I couldn't get the rear sway bar bushing retainer to bolt to sit properly so it's only halfway installed until I have the time to drill and re-tap it.
