Default funny noise...help =s

ok i was driving home one night i wasnt speeding or doing anything out of the ordinary. when i pulled up on my street and turned off the stero all the sudden i
start hearing this funny noise coming from what seems like my front right tire.
it sound like a squeaky loose bolt or something and to go more into detail about the noise its like when the bottom of your shoes when there wet and you walk on tile or something.

does it go away when the brakes are applied.
is it over bumps or only on smooth road.
does it get faster with speed.
also if you push on the suspension when you have it parked and make it bounce does it do it.
sounds like like posibly a dry bushing creeking up front. or possibly sway bar links

Could be a ball joint. When they start to go bad they sound like a squeaky matress. When it starts doing it, stop and turn the wheel back and forth. If it squeaks you found the problem.
