When I start the (manual trans) 4.0L 2WD there is a "chirp / "squeak" very brief.
If I stay in neutral in driveway and "stab" the gas pedal I can get the slight chirp / squeak at the end of the rise in RPM
If I go down the road in gear or neutral, the chirping / squeaking becomes much more
Does not have to be a bumpy road... even a regular road produces the chirps / squeak. Like metal on metal.
I just installed NEW upper control arms, lower ball joints and outer tie rods.... (worn not the squeak)...
Something flexing with the engine movement....
Thoughts ?
