Yeah so my power steering reservoir is full but my front drivers side squeaks when turning but not when hitting bumps... It also pulls to the left bad when braking... That could be a whole nother problem though any ideas about the squeak?
Squeaky front end...?

Squeak Could be a ball Joint.
The pulling brake may need bleeding, or you caliper could be shot. I had that problem on my 94. Right Caliper was bad. Let me know if it's a caliper. I have a good left one. but if you are pulling left your left should be grabbing hold and your right not grabbing.

If any part of your suspension looks like the attached picture, it will cause squeaks. This is my suspension on my 97 before I replaced it.
I have replaced the UCA and the sway bar end links It sounded to me like a caliper rubbing on the left side which could explain the pull to the left do you think it could be the LCA's or anything else?

What would a caliper rub? If it is on securely, it should roll freely. The squeak could also come from the LCA's as well.

Usually if a car pulls left it would be the right caliper that is the problem. I'm not totally sure, but you may want to check your wheel bearings. Also, check your strut rod bushings. I know when mine were bad the steering was loose, especially when braking. When they are bad the LCA can move back and forth, causing pulling and alignment problems.

Caliper or hose will cause it to pull while driving. It may be as easy as putting your hand on the wheel when you first stop the car. If it squeeks when hitting bumps it's probably the suspension. The caliper would make noise on a flat road. If it's the caliper or hose causing the pad to rotor noise it will heat up pretty fast and be real hot.

This is the same problem my old man had with my old 95. Changed the LCA with new ball joint on the passenger side and both side strut rod bushings. No more pulling and no more squeak.
No Noise when going over speed bumps just when turning the wheel it sounds like something is rubbing under there but I have plenty of tire clearance.... Maybe I should just change out the LCA's for good measure...

a squeak is usually either ball joints or outer tie rod ends.
to know which 1 it is you gotta inspect it.
