Guess what movie that's from? Well i searched the threads but couldn't find anything. every time i go over a tiny bump at 1-40 mph theres a squeek sound from my front left tire. I am aware though that my front left U-joint is blown and one of the heads is off the actual u joint so my 2 axles are almost free. That was the reason for the sound when i laid off the gas in 4 wheel drive that i asked about on here a few months back.I'm guessing it's the two axle heads hitting eachother, but if it's not the case what else do you think it could be? And How hard is it two switch a front u joint. seeing as it's really hard to get to. Haven't looked in my repair guide, been searching for it the past week
 
It's just a dry bushing. Either drive it through a puddle of spray lube, or turn up the radio.
 
haha thanks for the suggestion. Would it be safe to just spray a bunch load around all the bushings and see if it works or is there something i should worry about when doing that?
