Could be a sway bar.  Maybe a shock.  Stick your head underneath and have someone push the front up and down.  It's not squealing, right?  That'd be power steering.  At what speed does the squeak occur?

well, i'm not sure what the diff is between squaking and squealing... it's a CONSTANT whine when i turn the wheel to the right only, and it occurs anywhere below like 30 mph...
