Re: Squeaky truck
If it is like George says with no lube fittings on the parts, try a little penetrating lubricant sprayed on them one at a time until the bad boy shows up. If they're the culprits, they'll quiet down. Might take a day or two for the lube to work, though.

Re: Squeaky truck
When I got my '67, the idler arm was bent and rubbing against the cross member (if I recall correctly). Would squeak like heck when turning. I removed it and straightened it. No more noise. Just a thought.

Re: Squeaky truck
Right. With trucks this age, you just never know what could be going on. Though that sounds like a "Dukes of Hazard" kind of problem.

Re: Squeaky truck
Check your upper and lower ball joints they can also make the noise. You can also isolate the noise with a stethoscope for a auto parts store

.
Recently I traced a squeak down to my upper control arm bushings. A little grease there fixed it right up. HTH -klb Posted via Mobile Device |
