My friends thought that it could be creaking of the UCP. Opinions? Diagnosis? Prognosis?
How long have you had the new tires? when did the noise start? Factory wheels?? I have seen alloy wheels that were not tightened enough creak.

It's ok folks. Thanks for contributing to the thread. It's all good now. My truck is fixed using the shotgun technique. The source of the noise could not have been isolated more than the front suspension so "everything" was taken down, relubed and bolted back. The noise is gone. I'll be off to KRock. Thanks.
