High pitched sound.

Can someone please identify this sound. If you listen close enough it's a high pitch scraping noise.

maybe something let go in the rear brake drum, spring retainer/emergency brake cable/ etc, I have had them come loose before and I actually had a small stone stuck in the drum and it was scrapping ever so slightly....

 

Drive it to dealer if close by.

 

@kgilly did it effect your braking? I live down the road from a good year and they checked it this morning and didn't see anything wrong with my brakes. Could it be a warped drum?

 

It could be nearly anything, inspect it or have it inspected if you aren't capable.

 

@smitty99 is a good resource on possible issue.

 

I think you mean "scraping" noise. But if it's really bad, then it will be a "scrapping" noise.

 

@scritch. Yeah I'm using my iPhone I can't type on this thing. Thanks for pointing it out lolllll

 

It's really tough to evaluate noises that occur only under speed....
Hard to pinpoint issue when inspecting while stopped unless parts are obviously trashed.....
How have you determined that it is definitely coming from the rear tire area?
Could it be coming from the driveline, axle, or differential just as well?

Also, make sure your spare tire is tight up against the bed and mufflers/tailpipes are securely in hanger/grommets.

 

@red79cj7 i wish it would let me upload my video from my iPhone so y'all can hear it

I finally figured out how to upload the video.

 

Had/have a similar problem. Sounds like a very high pitched, metal on metal sound in association with a rotating rear passenger wheel. Brand-new 17 DCSB with icon stage 2s and added a RTT later. Dealer inspected and found the E-brake was set too tight. Didn't get rid of problem, but noise definitely decreased. Recently threw in an icon AAL set and sound is much or noticeable now and about 3500miles since the dealer attempted fix. Anyone have luck with the true problem/permeant solution?
