Has anyone had any experience with loud squeal noise? Seems to be coming from front end of vehicle. Bearings repacked and rotors turned and new pads have not helped.

I need some more information such as is the squeeling from the engine, tires, suspension, and does it happen at speed, idle.

Also are you 2WD or 4WD.
 






Squeal

I get the noise with the hubs locked or unlocked. 4WD engaged or not. It seems to be coming from the front end of the rig. Happens at any speed. Clutch pedal in or out no difference.

Could it be you belt/belts, I am not sure if you have just 1 serpentine or several on your year. Or it could be a bearing going bad on the PS, Alt or water pump.
 






i had a load sqeeling noise on a truck i had in the past - i had a bolt stuck in the timing belt , how it got there no idea - once it was out/fixed it was fine. just an idea to check for foreign objects. ciao,
