Squead front left

Squeak front left

Hi,

I have an 07 Tahoe 4 wd with 100 k miles,with a squeak on front left.
I have replaced the lower ball joint previously, just replaced the sway bar links and bushings. Shocks are in good shape.

Still have squeak, anyone else had this issue?

Is it ALL the time? Does it speed up and slow down with the truck?

Struts? Suspension? These are just suggestions, you may want to have the vehicle inspected by a certified technician.

The noise is when going over bumps.Had it inspected today thats how we got started with the sway bar links and bushings.The ball joints and bearing are good.

Thanks for the input, more ideas?

Check all the boots on everything again. It could be the tie rod ends as well. If a boot is not torn, you'll have to pinpoint it another way. Does it only do it on bumps, and not steering? That is odd as most things move with the suspension and steering.

I just replaced the upper control arm(ball joint) on my wife's tahoe last night. Terrible screeching noise when steering, and a weird "ticking" noise when hitting bumps. With 97k on her hoe, that ball joint was shot. I got a MOOG problem solver control arm on Amazon for less than $90, and it has a grease fitting. Beats me why Chevy stopped using grease fittings.

Do any car makers use grease fittings? I haven't seen one part that uses them.
