Loud Noises!!!!
Well, My Buddy Has A Mid 90's F 150 Flare Side 4x4 With A 6 Banger. Here's The Deal. There Is A Loud Squeaking Noise Coming From What Sounds To Be The Back Of The Tranny Were It Connects To The Drive Shaft. All U- Joints Are Brand New. Anybody Got Any Ideas Before The Trannt Gets Pulled, Thanks In Advance!!!

The Sqweeking Started After He Drove It 8 Hours Back From Ohio. We Thought It Was The U-joints, Replaced With Brand New From A-zone. They Were Well Coated With Wd Before Installed. Same Issue After They Were Put In. It Sounds Like Its Coming From The Tranny But I Guess It Could Be The Wheel Bearings. Easy Enough To Check. I'll Keep You All Posted. Thanks Again For The Help.

did you grease the nipples on the u-joints? I have done that before and it results in that same annoying little squeek....

If they don't have a grease zerk the best way to put them in is to pull the caps and put some grease in them, then put the caps back on. WD-40 would eat up any grease that was in them to begin with and eventually wear away, run out, or dry out.
I would pull the u-joints out/apart and put some grease in them.
