Squeak/Groan from rear when taking off

[oversteerdawg]

I get a double squeak/groan when rolling away from a stop. It's like a low pitched squeak/high pitched groan and it does it twice. I can vaguely feel it when it happens. Any ideas what this might be?

Probably noisy rear springs. Or your u-joints are bad already.

Video would help better with a diagnosis !

Have you been playing in the dirt? Pressure wash your leaf sprigs. A real pressure washer (gas), not plug in or the $1.00 car wash. Tires off if you are really into it. There is a debate on lubrication, it certainly works on the short term, but attracts more dirt in the long term. Let us know how it turns out.....

The squealing is coming from my shoes on the pedals. The intermittent almost buzz sounding noise is the squeak/groan I'm referring to.

Sounds like leaf springs squeaking. As mentioned, let your springs droop in the rear and pressure wash clean, let dry, see how that goes.
