squeaking suspension

[2k54RUNNIN]

I don't know where the sound is coming from other than it is coming from the driver front wheel. It squeaks very loud, even when the truck is parked and you just rock it or climbing into it. As you drive it is even louder. It doesn't sound like it is metal to metal sound, but I could be wrong too. And for some odd reason, when it rains, the squeaking stops when you drive it. I really hope it is not the strut or shocks. I have warranty, but I also have the cornfed 3/2 and 275/70/17, so that might void the warranty. Any idea or help is greatly appreciated.

could be one of the ball joints up front upper or lower. have a friend rock the truck while you place your hand on different suspension componants to feel were the vibrations coming from (vibrations=squeak). also try spraying a dry lubricant on all the suspension bushings up front and hit the spring bucket where the spacers sitting with some penetrating oil like wd40 or PB blaster that should help the squeak out if you find a ball joint squeaking that means the boot has failed on that ball joint allowing debree to enter the joint creating the squeak. you can ride it like that or replace the ball joints
