Need a Spot

My 96 Rodeo has what sounds like loud, squealing belts. The belts, all belts, have been replaced within the last six months. I have had the belts adjusted since their replacement but this did not eliminate the noise. I have used belt dressing as well which seems to provide only temporary relief.

My question is: If not the belts, what might be causing this noise?

Thanks, Gary

My bet would be an idler bearing. It sounds a lot like a belt and it is related.
