Jeep jk 6 speed stumped with noise from acceleration
i have had my jeep in 3 times to 3 different mechanics and none of them knew what the problem was. when i take off in first everything is great clutch is out and as soon as i hit the gas i get this squeak sound, but it only happens after i'm done shifting so it doesn't have to do with my clutch i feel. and its the same all the way up but you here it more so in the 1 through 4 gears. everything seems to be tights and nothing and its not a rattling noise either. hopefully someone can help its been bugging me for the past year.

If it's coming from dash or under shifter boot

Check your heat shields, especially near the firewall. When you're accelerating, your engine twists slightly in it's mounts. If you don't have enough clearance, they can rub on other things and make all sorts of weird noises.

Does it do it when you accelerate and not shifting. If you just accelerate in third, will it squeak? If you're idling and step on the gas?
If so, could also be your belt.
Squeaks are a bitch to find.

i had the same symptoms on my 07.. a squeak or chirp when i hit the gas or shifted... turned out to be that on of the rear control arm nuts had loosened up & the L shaped washer had rotated and was metal to metal with the control arm chirping away.
