johnny5th Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 For the past few days ive been drivin around with my windows down and the stereo off in this crazy awesome spring time weather, and I've noticed this weird squeaking noise from under my truck when I hit a few bumps in the road. Not big bumps, but just ones that might make the truck sway a bit. I have no idea what it could be, but its definitely from outside/under my truck. i can only hear it on the passenger side, and i hear it very faintly with the windows up. What could this be? I'm sitting on some shocks, waiting for my sway bars to come in, so i guess that *could* fix the issue, but until then i was wonderin if any of you had an idea on what was up.

misterp Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 I had a "chirp" that I believed to be a chassis squeak; I discovered that it was an exhaust bracket that had been rubbing against one of the frame crossmember bolt-ends on rough pavement. Get under the truck and shake the hell out of the exhaust pipes both up & down as well as front-to-back and see if you get noise, it needs 3/8" - 1/2" clearance (about a finger's width)... Also you can check for rear suspension noise easy enough by jumping up and down in the bed Mr. P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorCalSS Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 Lol, I thought I was the only one who had the case of the squeaks, just came back from the dealership and it turns out that it was my brakes squeaking because of one my rotors were uneven. Had them resurfaced and serviced under warranty and all's well for now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desrtrat Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 there was something on here about 3 + yrs ago about squeaking in the front end, and what was found was upper shock mount bushings were not lubed properly from the factory try lubing all your fittings and spray all your bushings with some HD silicone spray and see if that helps good luck..
