New front end squeek
I discovered a new front end squeek. Its not the normal clunk that everyone has but its a squeek when i rock the front passenger side of the truck. Doesnt have to be running or anything. I just barely rock the front passenger side and a nice loud squeek erupts....its not coming from the shock but sounds like it might come from that small drop arm on the undercarrage....any ideas....i also have the infamous front end clunk from the suspension....what is that too?
Thanks..

I just replaced the shims on my front leafs, fixed my squeak right up. Cost was $26 and change from the stealer. Im at work right now, but when I get home ill post the part number for the shim kit if you like.

Another place to look is the rubber bushing at the mounting points for the springs. The rubber bushings on my '01 would squeak like crazy especially when it was cold outside. When I swapped out the rubber bushings for urethane bushings the squeak dissappeared. Same thing for the rear, out with the rubber in with the urethane. All squeaks gone!
