Thogert... nice CAI & have you noticed the scene you had in the 2nd vid? Very nice!
"The Mountains Under my Truck"
BTW that squeek sounds like an AC clutch, idler pully or some front bearing perhaps.

I just thought the chirp was from the belt as I'm sure the PO didn't know about the goodyear gatorback belts.

I got around to installing my new HU, i also ran the wires for the back up cam, had to go buy a coupler the video cable was too short so that wasted time and couldn't finish the install on the cam. Good thing though i just need to place the camera and connect the video and the + and - and thats it. Here is a pic of the HU and some videos (the videos are short because i was recording while driving Not recommended )!!


Vid # 1

VID # 2

'The only thing i don't like its that i have to put the volume 30+ to get the same effect as my
old stereo at 15, still sounds good to me though.

Yeah, it most likely is your belt. If not your belt, the 2nd choice to look would be the belt tensioner imo.

So I think I found my 4x4 problem.

The little guy with the green clip popped off of the vac line that goes to the 4x4 actuator.

I also got my rear hatch open to check for any damaged wires. No luck. Now I get to chase it through the cab to try to find the problem.
