I have a 1987 fullsize K5 Blazer with the 5.7 ltr. engine. I have noticed a whining noise coming from the back of the vehicle. It seems to be louder when I press the gas (driveshaft u-bolt?) or when I turn the steering (power steering problem). It seems to get louder also when the vehicle is warm and been running a little.
