89 f-150 front end squeaking BAD Sign In

i have an 89 ford f-150 4x4. When i turn into a parking space or down a road it makes a aweful squeaking noise and i dont know what is causing it. I have tried cleaning all the grease joints on the front end then re-greasing them but that didnt help at all. It only does it when going slow but when i am driving down the road at a medium speed it doesnt make a noise at all...Can anyone help??

Take a good look at your u-joints, those can make a high pitched squeeking noise when the needle bearings get dry........

Look at all the points that brackets are riveted to the frame also. These rivets come loose and allow the metal to metal squeak. We drill out rivets and install grade 8 bolts with locking washers and lock nuts.



Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds
