Hey Yall,
I have my lifted F150 King Ranch and I noticed two days ago while backing up into a parking spot that she was squeaking!! Its consistent now, and I want to identify the squeak and fix it. Its only in reverse and everything else functions as normal. Any thoughts?

 

how often do you use the parking brake?

 

Never.

 

would not be shocked if the parking brake levers are frozen, causing your noise

 

Interesting... what would I need to look for?

 

I'd say lift the rear end up and test it.
Also, I'd start using your parking brake. It allows to vehicle to rest on the rear end, versus the transmission parking pawl

 

Great thank you. I will give this a try.

 

***UPDATE***
I took my truck for a car wash aka a bath ...( total girl thing I know.. but its true hahaha) and I also used the E-Brake and it squeaked for a split second. I will still be getting it up and checking underneath but it has seemed to help. ( Using the E- Brake)

 

Yep. Just keep using it and see if it stops.
