Check your brake pads first. While jacked up to do so, see if there's any play in the wheel by pulling out on the bottom of the tire. Any movement at all means the spindle nut is loose and making the brakes rub and causing a noise. Remove the spindle dust cover, the cotter pin, snug the nut and put it back together.be sure the cotter pin holes are lined up to put it back in.
