Outer Limits 4x4 Board

i have this annoying squeak coming from the front left had side of my 04 triton dual cab gls. i would almost pick it for a bearing noise except it doesnt increase as my speed does. it is bloody annoying. can anyone tell me where i might start looking before i take it in to a "mechanic".

thanks

Last bloody annoying squeak I had from my front left was the lower balljoint - the one I buggered while removing my front diff, and had to replace with a cheapy Chinese replacement (on a Saturday) which didn't have a grease nipple!

I made damn sure the next replacement had a grease nipple - then injected grease into every nipple I could find on the vehicle.

Yeah could be a balljoint. I'm about to get all mine replaced, three have play in them and they're sqeaking like crazy!

If it sqeaks when you turn the steering wheel (on the spot or driving) or bounce the suspension it's prolly a balljoint.

Was just trawling through posts and remembered my speedo cable sounded like a wheel bearing noise a little while back. It's not serviceable so I got a new one for $110 and noise fixed.
BTW it sounded more like a rubbing sound than a squeak. Its enters the left hand side of the transfer case, so worth checking that.
