I dont know what it could be but if you have any sugestions and estimates would be greatley appreciated....also a bed like creakin when i go over bumps heard from the front end

Not an expert here, but check your U joints.
If they have any up/down or sid to side play, it is an easy fix.

The front diff is more of my area of expertise but I would try checking the axle bearing or it may even be one of your rear brakes.

if you can hear it durring a sharp turn one way or the other, it might be your cv's going out, that is if you have 4wd, if not I dont know what it is. the squeeking could be body mounts starting to dry rot, or bushing in the suspension that need greased. If it is the CV's there not too bad to change

i took to a local shop around here and they said could be axel or sumtin else back dere??? u joints are located where? and what about bed squeaking sound coming from front

U joints are on the drive shaft at each end. Crawl under and se if you can shake or wiggle the driveshaft. It should be real nice and tight.

dont mean to insult my own intelligence but drive shaft runs from transmission to rear diff right

 

[96ProCompTahoe]

yes. from the tail of the trans, or transfer case on a 4wd, to the rear end.

do you get a vibration on the highway?

 

[blackcoffee]

Yeah if it vibrates then its the u-joints most likely, IF its 4WD.
