I have a 1993 4wd 22re, runs good and solid. It started making a high pitch squeal at high RPMs. I have new belts, and I recently sprayed belt dressing on them to try to alleviate the problem, no luck though. I have not steam cleaned the engine, due to its age and the fear of doing some type of damage, (thinking dust may be the culprit). Is this a "warning" that something may be about to go out, bearing?, pulley? timing chain? I dont have a tach, so by high RPMs I mean 30-35 mph in 2nd gear, it squeals just before the shift into 3rd. This morning it squealed at 42 just before the shift into 4th..Thanks for any info.

I had the same thing happen on my 92 22RE....dam alt belt. Belt spray might help....tightening it may or may not help. Some belt brands just do not "fit" well on the pulley and will loose grip.
