Mystery noise

Have this mysterious squeeking sound coming from my driver side front wheel. It only appears to happens mid way thru the day but not for the first few miles of driving. I jacked it up and rotated the tire to see if it was my bearing but it doesn't have the symptoms of a bad wheel bearing. It would also help if I could detect where the sound is precisely coming from without having to drive.

Have you checked your brakes to see if they may be hanging up a bit? :thinking:

Well my break caliper actually seized on me while I was driving. A buddy of mine had to come to the rescue and we changed the caliper in a real estate parking lot

I discovered that it was the Axel U-Joint. I had to put my truck in neutral and push it down the street in order to discover where it came from
