I don't think it's normal, but my front right has the same squeek. I have about 5,000km on new breaks, so I figure I need to use some break grease on the pad contacts. I plan to do it once the snow is gone.

Sounds like the brake squealer, a little piece of metal on the pad so you know when it's time to replace them. What year truck, how many miles, how old are the pads?
