Loud squeak from engine/trans

Post by Arrowhead2003 »

My 1970 f100 has developed a very loud squeak recently, I have unhooked all belts to see if it was power steering, water pump, or the fan and it still squeaked. This is very frustrating and does not sound good. Any help or advice on what this could would be very appreciated :?

Where, front or rear of engine?

When, moving or standing still?

The truck is in park and it seems to be coming from the rear of the engine or possibly transmission

Try a cracked/broken flex plate.
