Hey y'all!
i have 1 question about a squeek that i keep hearing when driving my truck. the noise comes from where the tranny meets the driveshaft, at that rubber boot. this squeek will only hapen if that part of the truck is cold. when it warms up, the squeek goes away. i've recently greesed the joints ect with high quality synthetic greese, and all the universla joint boots, and that rubber boot aroun where the tranny meets the driveshaft are all fine. any ideas to why this thing is squeeking?
thanks guys

After replacing my U-joints, the squeeking went away.

By the sound of it you have a U-jount out. Just because you greased it doesn't mean it is good. The damage may have already been done, Good Luck
