    What is this noise???

    Does anyone know if running without those support beams will present issues in the future, or am I okay to leave it as is?

    What is this noise???

    I am pleased to announce that I have found and eliminated the noise I question!!!:waytogo: So I was under the truck pulling the cover to inspect the harmonic balancer bolts, and noticed when I put pressure on the motor/trans to break the cover bolts, I would hear a squeak. I grabbed somewhere...

    What is this noise???

    It's funny you mention vibration. I've been noticing stuff in the cab rattling more when I first start accelerating from a stop. I just thought my exhaust was getting louder or something. Haha. You might be in to something there...

    What is this noise???

    The mystery continues.... Today I picked up new idler and tensioner pulleys, along with a new belt for good measure. Once I got the old belt off, I ran the engine without the belt and the noise was alive and well! So that eliminates pulleys and accessories. :( I got it back together with the...

    What is this noise???

    Can't confirm age of belt. I've owned it for 7 months and haven't changed it myself. Looks to be in good condition, but I may as well replace it now to rule that out.

    What is this noise???

    I didn't notice any alignment issues with the belt during and after belt installation. I'll give a closer listen to those items mentioned tomorrow. I do know that while I was filming, it didn't seem like that pulley was wobbling as much as my eyes were seeing. Maybe camera focus or something...

    What is this noise???

    OK the new pump is in, but the noise remains. Bummer... I'm glad I did I t though, since it was leaking. New development: Either the squeaking noise got louder, or the new water pump is much quieter, because the noise seems more pronounced than before. I am pretty confident that the sound is...

    What is this noise???

    I had some time this evening so I probed around with a screwdriver as recommended. I didn't have a very long one, but was able to reach the top of the water pump and listen from the other end. A big jet engine would be the best way I can describe what the sound resembles. After a while if...

    What is this noise???

    I recently discovered a coolant leak that I believe is coming from the water pump, so maybe that's related? I just don't know how I feel about sticking a screwdriver near all those moving parts (fan/belt/ etc). I could swear the sound was coming from the Bell housing, but it wouldn't surprise...

    What is this noise???

    Hi fellas, Over the past month, I've noticed a strange noise when in reverse, primarily when holding the truck in place with the brake. It is getting louder as time goes on and I hear it in park/neutral now, sometimes drive when idling, just not as bad as reverse. It also does it for a second...
