Default suspension squeek
Just over the last couple of days, I've notice my front suspension is a bit squeaky. I noticed it when I was driving in an enclosed parking garage, I hit a dip and you can hear the whole car squeak. It's not terribly hi-pitched, and if I manually push the car up and down with sitting still, I don't hear anything. Im not well versed in the mechanics of the car, but any insight would be appreciated. 2000 Cab.

thanks!

Lower control arms, tie rods, or ARB links.

If it's squeaky it's most probably the control arm.....
Just change them and for sure the squeaky sound will disappear....
