creeking noise

[irock03]

l am having trouble with a loud wouldn't say squealing but creeking nose when l turn the steering wheel, any ideas?
l am pretty positive it is not the steering any ideas as to what else it could be, l was told a dry tie rod or bad bushing????
Plus one of my HID low beams just went and not to happy with a 300 price tag on a new bulb.

Squeeking Noise

Hey iroc, I have the same problem. My mechanic says 'ball joints.' Push down & let up on the hood with all your weight & see if it squeeks. LOL, texstead

it is either the ball joints, upper/lower control arms, front sway bar endlinks. check the bushings they are most likely worn to living hell!

Ball joint(s).

When it does give, the wheel will fall off.

Better safe than sorry!

Which Ball joints usually fail when the wheel falls off the upper or lowers?

 

[PioneerCrazed]

The lowers are the ones that fail and the wheel falls off. Seen the pics?

if the lower goes your wheel goes way out if the upper goes then it folds under, either way you aint going nowhere
