So I have a 97 ram 1500 that’s been the greatest truck ever but recently it’s been making some strange noises. Started out sounding like a belt squealing and it only would make that sound randomly when it wanted. Then it turned to a pretty consistent chirp or squeak which again I thought was coming from the belt or a pulley. Then I actually got out and listened good and the chirp is definitely coming from the back side of the truck. Not sure if it’s trans related or what but it’s driving me crazy. Makes the noise no matter if you’re in drive, neutral or park or reverse. Also about 80% of the time it makes a loud metallic clank when shifting into reverse which is new also. I checked trans fluid and it was fine. Anyone know what I may be looking at here?
