Squeaking coming from my rear wheel.?

Has anyone had there rear wheel bearings go bad? I’ve got a squeak and I’m pretty sure it isn’t the leaf pack. I’m just about the turn 50k miles.

 

Have you jacked it up and checked?
If not there, I'd drop the driveshaft and check the u-joints.

Do you offroad and/or cross water frequently?

 

I have not but plan to soon when my suspension airbags come in. Drive shaft didn’t think of that. Probably could grease that. It’s been lifted its whole life. No water crossings out in Vegas ha.

 

I would also start by lifting it up and grabbing onto the tire/wheel at 12 and 6 and checking for any movement.

The driveshaft is another good place to start. It will have a rotational squeek that will speed up and is mainly audible at low speeds. Like mentioned above, pulling the driveshaft and checking the ujoints is the way to go, its hard to determine if theyre bad on the truck bc you cant get their full range of motion

 

They eliminated the greaseable u-joints from the rear driveshaft in June/July of '16.
