front end squeak

hello, i have a 1998 F150, and over the past couple of weeks i have noticed that the front end is sqeaking, when i corner. i was wondering if the front end just needs to be greased, becasue when i bought the truck the front end was pretty dried out. I changed the ball joints in the truck before the winter, and new front rotors and pads.
thanks for your input,
garrett

My 97 f250ld squeaked real bad. There's only a couple places to grease it. What helped me was I grabbed a can of wd40 and sprayed all of the joints and rubber deals and it doesn't make any noise at all now! Worked for me!

These trucks are kind of known for that, find some WD40, or more prefferably some moly type spray lube and have a buddy turn the wheels back and forth with the truck jacked up. Hose down everything that is coverred by a rubber boot. That should stop it.
