[QUOTE="Jdaniel, post: 1547294, member: 32888"] I know this is old but I’ve been battling this issue for the longest and I finally figured it out. My issue was a two part problem. When the front suspension was loaded or unloaded... I would get a squeak. I found my adjustable track bar was kitting the K member. I ground the k member down and that corrected one squeak. But I was still getting a small squeak that was coming from under my feet when hitting bumps. Not as bad as the track bar hitting the K member but definitely noticeable. My steering has been getting sloppy and I decided to take the front drivers side fender cover out and tighten down the steering gearbox mesh screw. I made the adjustment and made a few test drives. What I noticed is the chirp I was hearing was now gone. So if you have a front end chirping or squeak when you load/unload your front suspension and have play in the steering wheel... it’s likely your gearbox. Mine is good to go now. [/QUOTE]
