Default Suspension Problem

My car makes a terrible squeaking sound. I know the brakes may be part of the problem, but the springs look low on the passenger side of the car, and i get complaits from my bro that it feels funny when i hit bumps. Eventually i want to get everything replaced, i just want to know if i should do it as soon as i can, or if anything like this is normal. And how much it would cost to get my suspension fixed.

Is the noise coming from the front or rear? How many miles are on the car? Sounds like a bad strut or something related to that.

The noise is coming from the front, and there is a little over 62,000 miles on it.

It could be several things, struts, strut mounts, control arm bushings, ball joints, or tie rod ends.

Problem solved, It was my sway bar link (whatever that is) was rubbing againts the axel because it was bent. $80 later, problem solved, new sway bar. the end.
