OK, first off YES i did a search on this first.

Just today i was on a 4 or 5 hour drive home and i noticed first off on the highway that when i brake i hear a sqeeking. Now this sound is only coming from the passenger front wheelwell area. It will also do it when going over a big bump or something but not as loud as it doesn't when forward pressure it put on. Its not the brakes, i just did them and the pads are new and rotors are in great shape. Also its like a rubbing/squeek. Just kinda high pitched. Now i just put in new springs also in the front. SO i dunno what it is i can't exactly identify it since i only hear it while driving. BTW it doesn't do it when i turn the wheels so i doubt its a ball joint thing. If anyone has any ideas shoot them out or PM me and if i didn't give good enough info just ask and i'll give you a better description. Thanks.
 
Check and make sure you didn't bend the warning squeeler too close (if you have one). Also did you put the squeel inhibitor plate back on or use some quieting gel?
 
OK sorry but i have no idea what you are talking about. Also just drove it again and it does it under acceleration too just couldn't hear it before over my exhaust. The only time it doesn't do it is when i'm turning or when i'm cruising. THanks for the help, anymore thoughts?
