Front end question

Hello all! I have a 1999 Ford F-150, and was wondering why the front end squeaks alot while going over bumps. It seems to be a common problem, as I have noticed alot of the F-150's doing the same thing. Any help with a starting point would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!! TERZI

bounce on the bumper in the driveway while someone looks under neith the truck. Could be as simple as sway bar bushings, or could be more major like ball joints or tie rod ends.

I would say ball joints if there original there probably bad. You can stick them with a needle greaser and squirt some grease in them. It may quite them down.
