I had the squeak when going over speed bumps a while ago but it was the sway bar bushings. This noise is new. It is not the ABS. It actually seems to occur more the slower I am going. I think ball joints is a decent guess except I have no other symptoms. Other than the occaisional noise everything is fine. And I did a search so I think I can inspect the joints now.

So my new question is:

If I do have to change the ball joints, do I really have to remove the hub and bearings?
