Ive been chasing a front end squeak on my ram for months.

Was about to start replacing parts as it was comming from passenger side wheel well
Mostly when turning or hitting certain bumps

Well i finnally found it and hope someone else can benefit from my findings as it was driving me insane.

The fix. Stupid tape on hood underside was missing on pad that supports hood
Must have been rubbing just right. I noticed when lifting hood were the stops hit. They have installed clear tape above them and one piece of tape was missing on mine.

Put some clear packaging tape on and squeak gone

Sounds travel weird on vehicles. Where you think it is coming from, it is many times way off from the origin.

I had a Jeep Wrangler that had a squeak I swore was coming form the rear passenger door area. Took the whole area interior apart and found nothing. Finally found the drivers seat mount and track was installed wrong in the factory a little offset. Unbolted and re-bolted seat mounts and squeak went away. **** will drive you nuts sometimes.
