Low spread squeaks

Driving me nuts. When I'm in a drive through or pulling up/ leaving someplace my truck squeaks like crazy. Even if I just turn the steering wheel it will make my ears bleed.

My lower ball joints need to be replaced on the pass side. Could this be the cause?

Mine does that and it doesn't have lower ball joints. It seems to be common issue with the body mounts. Someone did a great write up on a fix he did. Otherwise, in the mean time try some silicone spray as temp fix.

Are they squeaks or 'pop clunk' noises? The body mount fix Recon mentioned will solve the noise, just make sure its not the rear leaf springs before you go ahead with it.

You might need to grease those, amrg can chime in here I think, he's isolated all the noises and he's fixing them one by one.

My squeak as you described came from the torsion bar where they go into the LCA. Spray that with some aerosol lithium grease and see if it goes away.
