    Default chirping and a pop


    Trying to figure out what's up with the truck. Just started a chirping, almost like the brakes when they get worn but my foots not on the brake pedal. Does it at times when I'm driving slow and hit a bump in the road. It's almost constant going down the road. This morning it added a pop pop when I was going about 2 MPH coming to a stop. It's got 67,000 on it. Bearings maybe? I don't feel it wobbling like I did in the other truck though when they went out. It's definately from the front of the truck

    I'd bet it's one of your front struts. I liked to have never figured out where mine was coming from. At first I thought it was the brakes cause that's when it started. Then it got to soundin rough goin down the road. And from experience, don't try and guess which one it is. Replace em both.
    If it is your bearings, it'll be the right side. Had two different trucks that the right side went out on. A 04 and an 07.

    Universal joint or bearings were my first 2 thoughts. It makes that same sound even when I'm on fresh smooth asphalt, no bumps

    I had a wheel u-joint go out two different times on different trucks. That sounds exactly like what they were doing.
