Default Car Front End Squeeling

Here the deal 4wd Suby ,,, fromt end started screaching and was semi controlable Pitch wize by pushing the breaks ,,, So i changed the pads The were like new .... The car still squeals ,,,, Intermittently , When turning left the left front grinds and when turning right the right front grinds when you hit the breaks you can make it better or worst

Whats going on with this thing?

I would check for front end play and also maybe worn bearing also. and the brake pad hardware to make sure it isnt rubbing the rotor.

^^^^^ what he said.

there's a lot of ideas here. front bearing/hub assemblies, hot spots on the rotors, rust ridges built up on the rotors, the little clips that hold the brake pads in could be touching the rotor... i'll think some more.

check the oil in your front diff, might be low and causing the front viscous clutch pack to mess up.

Also check your backing plates and make sure they arent hitting against anything, like the rotor in particular.
