Default Brakes?

So ever since my engine over haul and axle replacement, I have been getting this weird noise from the passenger side front brakes. Like a squeaking/ creeking noise, it's ANNOYING and only happens when i apply the brakes.. Any one got a clue??

Thanks

Sounds are hard to describe and understand...in words. Based upon what you are describing I'm thinking something in the suspension system-bushings. Of course which one(s) is the hard part.

I'll take a vid of it, it's so loud you can hear it inside the car, and it's not the suspension bro. Idk, it almost sounds like the brake pads it self. Like if they skip, like it rolls then the noise and the wheel turns a little then the sound again..

I went for suspension first ("squeaking/ creeking noise") but your second post and the vid shed more light on the issue/noise. Yes it does sound like something in the brakes-what have you already done/checked?-have you pulled the tire and looked at the brakes. Be sure the slides on the caliper are moving freely, pads are clean and moving in the caliper bracket and inspect the rotor for hard/heat spots.
