Default Squeak in the front right wheel when i turn?

So I just fixed the rear caliper that froze on my wife's jeep and took it for a ride and found that the front right wheel has a squeak when I turn while I am driving....


What would this be?

U joints? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jeff

P.s. if my wife doesn't start telling me about these noises before something brakes I am going to rip out her radio.

Universal joint was shot.

Half way done with the replacement but got stuck on needing a 36mm socket.
