Squeking noise driving me crazy and scaring my deer

Post by joebuck »

I got a squeking noise coming from right front tire. I pull the tire and hub and bearings are in great shape. I actually replaced them last year. However when I put the jeep in motion after about 300 yards a squeking noise starts up coming from that right front area. Kind of sounds like red bird singing? It squeks in 2 wheel and 4 wheel drive. If i press the brakes it still squeks...Would my differential bearings make this noise? any advice much appreciated!!

Sounds like your driveshaft u-joint. I have had them go south on other vehicles and they sound like very angry birds.
