Squeaky sound coming from the front somewhere?

When i turn I kind of hear a sqeaky sound coming from the front somewhere. Kinda hard to describe what it sounds like, but think of it where your in an old recliner chair going back and forth making a noise, thats what it sounds like to me. I know my serpentine belt is going bad and needs to be replaced, but what could it be? I just started hearing it.
 




I've been driving on noisy strut mounts forever. All stock struts will do it by like 100k miles, and people go pretty far on stock struts. I don't really notice it on my car unless I stick my head out the window and turn. My struts are bad though, they also squeak when they're compressed quickly, like hitting a decent sized bump. I'll get some stock replacement kyb's eventually.
 
Are those really needed? Its a 99, with about 134000 miles, Dont want to throw alot of money at it since Ill most likely be getting a new car after winter
 


You can use it if you want for installation and removal, but it appears that he is re-using the spring, whereas the struts I posted are complete, so ignore that. It's really quite easy. As long as you have an impact gun, or a decent breaker bar, there's nothing standing in your way. Of course an alignment afterwards is necessary since that is your camber adjustment. If you have other suspension parts to replace that affect alignment, replace them too.
