I am taking the truck in for a exam, as I have slight squeak as front wheels revolve that I noticed yesterday,more than likely the leak and squeak are involved.Thanks for your input!

What does the squeak sound like? Mine did it when the wheel bearing was going bad, kinda like a metal on metal sound?

Mine is not very loud just small noise as the wheel turns,If you look at the pic I posted on this thread, could be a seal and letting the bearing dry out.I'm sure it is nothing major unless a bearing gets froze and wares a shaft out on something.

4x4 correct? Mine started to leak a bit like that last year, with the wheel bearing tho, it's an enclosed bearing so the only grease that's in it is from the factory, does it do it when you travel in a straight line?

Yes it is a 4X4 and it seems to squeak going straight,not very loud and seems to start after applying the brakes, then it keeps on squeaking...If the weather ever clears, I plan on getting it checked out.Thanks for the help,I'm leaning toward bearing.
