Doc,
I've had a faint squeak like that from Day 1, primarily when I turn left on wide curves in the road.

I spent tons of time working with MedVed Hummer to figure out what this was. They even flew a tech out Am General. They used stethescopes, etc, etc and had my rigs for days at a time.

The final answer was "we don't know" and "it's within acceptable noise tolerance so we're not going to do anything about it".

Personally, I think it's a fluke with the steering column - where at certain angles it hums sort of like a tuning fork.
