Anyone know what it could be?
Heres a video of it. Try to watch the center of the screen you can see the belt shifting on the pulley and moving.

Any advice or info on whats making the belt shift. Would it be a loose pully or something sliding in and out under haed throttle? Need help with it cus the squeak is annoying and i drive WOT most of the time in the city.

I'm four door so we're good there. I'm not worried about doing it its more how it will be in the long run. Whether you used the cotter pins, quick pins, or welded in bolts. I want the door to close as close to stock as possible and unless the doors off people won't notice it

I have 3 CB questions
1. Mount to roof or tail light
2. Recommended length and material of antenna? (I want to be able to pull in the garage, so would something I could tie down be best?)
3. Recommended mount bracket for antenna?

for the little bar in the middle, I left it bolted to the frame and use a cotter pin I got at lowe's. I bought wiring harnesses from radio shack and spliced them in so that my windows and doorlocks still work. Best way is with a hi lift jack or second person to hold them up when your bolting and unbolting.

Probably the PS pump or a high pressure hose. Those metal crimped fittings on the hoses usually loosen up and have to be replaced. The PS cap probably isn't a problem unless its very loose.
Powerwash that area then have someone go lock to lock with the steering wheel and try to find the leak.

So what exactly is a '92? I know it's a Chrysler but it seems there are differences between my XJ and "Universal Chrysler Parts" for 92? Was it still during the AMC to Chrysler transition?

1. Mount to roof or tail light
Roof is technically best, but will get in the way and be too tall. Taillight works fine
2. Recommended length and material of antenna? (I want to be able to pull in the garage, so would something I could tie down be best?)
Get a fiberglass flexible antenna - 4 feet or so should be sufficient. I attached mine to the middle of the taillight and it only sticks up a little over a foot and a half over the roof
3. Recommended mount bracket for antenna?
Make one - mine is 3/16" plate with a 90° bend
