    Could be this then. Angle is important. Maybe it had shims on it and they didn't put them back on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJXja7fEMmM

    Kinda the same but remains constant throughout. The noise gets loud when I sit at 2000-2500rpm it really sounds like a bad fan belt sounds type squeal. Then goes away when stopped. The squeal is happening during the revolutions

    And btw, I don't think the driveshaft was shimmed after the lift install, so those guys who installed the new bearing and u joint didn't account for the lift and angle? Hrmmm..

    If it wasn't squeeking before it was worked on, take it back to the shop long drive and all.

    Never made this squeak ever since I owned this truck. Only started after it was worked on. Definitely going to take it back and it is, but praying it makes the drive there. It should.. it made it here. Ugh.. thanks Shelf Life you been a big help!

    It will make it to the shop. It definitely sounds like a dry bearing or improperly installed ujoint.

    Finally made it to the shop, replacing the bearing and u joints, all of them this time. Man what a nightmare these couple days. Go out of town and truck craps out..
    :(
