squeal noise while driving (not tcase)

Lately while im driving i hear this sound that sounds like a break squeal but when my brakes are not engaged. It first started doing this when reversing now it sometimes is noticable while driving. I know its not the tcase tho. it doesnt sound like the tcase and it does it while in nuetral as well. Im thinking something with the suspension but im not too sure. So any help would be great

Brake wear indicators can make this noise even when not applied. Usually happens in reverse first then gets progressively worse. I have also seen drive shaft center bearings make squeal noises.

i wish. i would have to go to a shop. maybe ill try it with 4 jack stands on the car or something. But until I can do that any ideas?

No one agrees on the suspension? The reason i suspect that is because when the sound started (maybe in my head) it seemed like the car got much much stiffer.
