Squeeling coming from front end...

...........what kinda car we're dealing with. I'd like to know. What ever it is it does sound as though it maybe the bearings. Sounds as though you have never done this before. I do 99% of the work here in my shop on my cars so there is a cost savings when you already have the tools. Orielly's will loan you the tools to DIY. Something i would like to see in this group of people is this. Everyone is great with the assistance of advice. Hands down the best bunch of techs on the planet... But...we need more. There are some A Body guys in your area or close by that as myself would assist you, you do the work, in doing this work without getting hosed by a shop. Anyone in my area has that benefit. Bring it over and get your hands dirty. Who knows, you may even learn something and come away with a good feeling. I'll post a thread on this very issue later. What car?
