    So, I've been having 2 ongoing issues that i assume are related and are driving me crazy. Before I take the my truck into the shop I figured I'd ask here. Hopefully I'm posting this in the right section.

    First off, I keep hearing a faint chirping squeak coming from the front right tire that speeds up as I do. It's quiet enough that if I have the windows up you can barely hear it. When turning right it stops.

    Secondly, every few weeks while I'm on the highway I can feel the truck pulling right and it feels like its riding rough(if that makes sense) under that tire almost like there is a lot of vibration on that tire. This doesn't happen all the time when on the highway very occasionally.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Is the brake dust cover rubbing and causing the “chirping” noise?

    Fill out your truck discription in your personal profile so we know what the year Tundra you have.

    Lots of things can cause a pull:

    Alignment, bad tire, faulty caliper, etc.

    I would check the dust cover. I had this happen to me on my 12’. Drove me nuts. This happens pretty easily when rotating tires.

    I would definitely check what @ColoradoTJ suggested.

    Have you had it in any sand, silt, or water (big puddles even.)

    I'll check it out. This summer has been non stop rain so I've definitely been through some big puddles. Thanks!
