I've got rhythm! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Yeah, I've got rhythm, but it depends on the speed I'm going. From stopped to about 25mph I get a squeak-squeak-squeak out of a front wheel that increases with speed. It does seem to go away as speed increases, but at low speed it kinda sounds like a steam engine...squeaking with a rumble grumble between squeaks.

So, is this wheel bearings or brake pads? If I go in to do either of those, is it worth just doing both bearings and pads?
