It could be your suspension urethane bushings squeeking. try spraying some wd40, that may do it.

ive tried the wd40 and it still didnt help.. 99 1500 61,000

Ok, try the steering linkages. The pitman arm the tie rod ends and the rack and pinion. It's going to be steering related I'd bet.

On the end of your torsion bar up front there are two connecting links that hold the bar to the frame. I've replaced both mine. They were badly rusted inside the boots.

mine look okay... but i noticed when truck is still i can jump up and down on front bumper and heard that sqeaking noise also if this might help.. thanks

there is a horizontal bar in the middle of the auto transmission shifting linkage that has nylon/plastic bushings that are prone to squeak. its where the up/down shifting rod transfers to the front/back rod that goes to the transmission. the bushings are on the ends of the horizontal rod. lay down under the truck and have someone push on the truck and see if you can find it. if thats it, apply a lot of white lithium or wheel brg grease to those bushings. this drove me crazy before i found it.
