Default Front end suspension making noise

On my 92 Es300, I;m starting to hear a noise from my passenger front. It seems to make a little squeeking noise when the tire rotates in motion. I'm wondering if this has something to do with wheel bearings, struts or cv joint. I also notice that my front end makes a clunking sound when going over a speedbump.

For the clunking noise when going over bumps, check your strut mounts or your struts. Either of them could be on their way out. Not exactly sure of the squeaking noise when your front wheels turn, but it's possible that the wheel bearings or the joint assembly could use some lubrication.

Sounds like your struts are in need of replacement or the strut mounts are worn.
