Default 1998 Civic Front End Squeak

My front passenger side squeaks when I press down on that corner (video attached) - The steering seems to be 'off' a little (hard to explain)

Any ideas of what needs to be replaced?

Bad ball joint. Most likely it's the lower ball that needs to be changed.

another possibility is the brake dust shield just rubbing on the lower ball joint- I bent my dust shield to get it off the rotor a while back but now it hits there and sounds the same

also my suspension cleared state inspection last week here in Maine fwiw
