1997 Front end Squeak HELP!!!!

Its only on the right side. When i push down on the right side, its really loud but when i push on the left side it doesnt squeak. It sounds its really loud. When i turn the wheel it sounds like an old door in a scary movie being closed.
(ehhhhhh) Is it my ball joints?

Ball joints. I'd there original you need a needle greaser and squirt some grease in the ball joint boot. But if there making that much noise you probably need to replace them
