hey guys my jeep has always made a squeal at low speeds and it goes away when i stop and speeds up as i accelerate, up to like 20mph before it goes away. Sounds like a belt or something, any ideas? Just curious as to what it is or could be...thought it was my u-joints but i replaced them and it still does it

bad idea with the WD you wont be able to stop after spraying haha, did you put ceramic grease on the caliper bolts and some sort of brake quiet on the back of the pads? If not that could be the cause or it all washed off from wheeling

Well, is it coming from the wheels or the engine? What happens when you turn your A/C on (assuming it works)? The belts on the 4.0 need to be ridiculously tight

i think its coming from the engine bay. It sounds like a squeaky belt. Nothing but nice cold air when i turn my ac on! How do i know how tight the belts should be?

Any thoughts on why my front speakers dont work? Already fixed the usual broken wire at the door issue a couple years ago and checked my wiring behind radio, any other locations?
