Front Left Squeek
 
Hello Everyone,

I traced a squeek to the front left wheel of my jeep. I haven't pulled the tire off it yet but I know its coming from the wheel. It appears to be rpm dependent. At around 15 miles and hour I can hear squeek squeek squeek. Its not super loud and have no idea what it is? I've had a bearing go before in a non axle based car and know the rum rum sound then the grinding sound. So I don't think its a bearing. I do have relatively new brakes and rotors (about 4 months old). Just curious if anyone had any ideas?

try spraying wd40 everywhere that there could be a possible squeek

It could be the hub bearing, id say 80% of the time you get the hum/drone, but I have seen, and been, in situations where they squeak. I would also look at the u-joints, they can pop, squeak, bump, etc.

Hmmm

I hope its something stupid and not a hub bearing

Did you try re-torquing the lugs again? And when the brakes were done, did everything seat up good?
