Changed the breaks about 3 weeks ago, I had both calipers up front sticking and the breaks were uneven so i just replaced them and the calipers. Then on monday i started to notice whenever I make a left turn I am now getting a chirping sound from what sounds like the front left tire, but it dont happen it all the time. its just puzzling.

this squeak is pretty steady now and also occurs when going down a bumpy road. any one have this problem? I had the brakes checked out and they said everything was fine.

lift every corner and spin the tire see what happens, if LS lift whole rear. may be a bad bearing or hub

Dang, mine is doing this too. Do these have unit bearings or no?

no i dont have unit bearings. I had a u-joint on the drivers side go bad. then it came back, me and the neighbor was checking it out today and the other side is doing the same thing. hope it helps. but i havent got to tear the passanger side wheel out yet.
