    Okay, so I replaced my ujoints and carrier bearing, did right front wheel bearing and hub assembly, and someone else did my alternator and serpentine belt. But I'm still getting clunking sounds when I take off, sometimes when i stop,and sometimes when I shift from park to drive and or reverse...SO FRUSTRATING, plus a high pitch, not super loud, squeal when I'm driving!! HELP!!
    Please.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Broken rear spring, maybe. Did you replace the belt tensioner pulley and idler pulleys?

    Maybe axle wrap when taking off and stopping.
    Or possibly pad slap when shifting from park to drive or park to reverse.

    How many leaf springs does your truck have?
    3 total (including the overload spring)
    Or 4? (including the overload)

    Pulleys, no.
    And leaf springs? I have no clue!
    I know they're practically rainbow shaped now..

    Someone did say something about my left front brake caliper? Pulls when stopping..

    Post over here in your local threads. See if you can get some local to get a second set of eyes/ears on it.

    Did the high pitched squealing start before or after the bearing was replaced?
    It’s not hard to slip with the hammer when beating the hub off, and bend the backing plate. If this happens it can rub the rotor.
    Or it could be a stuck caliper, but you say it pulls when stopping more to one side.
    I’ve had this happen once on a Ford Ranger, the brake like was bad and preventing the caliper from working.

    I'm going to recommend replacing the leaf packs if that's the shape they are currently in. Also check the rear leaf U-bolts torque. It should be about 75 ft/lbs. Does the truck have any lift ? Hopefully no lift blocks. I would also recommend checking the condition of trans fluid to see if it's low or needing a flush.

    I wish I could check trans fluid! No dip stick, gotta do it underneath!
    No lift, and clunks now when I put in reverse on left side. And I mean she CLUNKS, scary sounding!!

    And soon as I save money to get leaf springs, but I'm out here on the streets right now and not able to work due to severing my flexor tendon and bad infection after they repaired it, so it's gonna be awhile!

    Lol. Took me about 4 hours to change my oil pan gasket as it was!!

    Thank you!
