Funny you should mention this. Just had the same thing happen to me,
mileage about 41,000. Took the truck to my local mechanic, he said the
lower ball joints were dry. For a quick fix he pried up the rubber boot
around the joint and shot a LOT of grease in there. After a day the
squeaking went away, but I know I need to get new ones. Does anyone make
replacement joints with zerk fittings?
