Chirp from backend on hard acceleration...

I have a 1997 F150XLT Supercab with about 75k on it. I get a chirp (almost sounds like someone tapping their horn) if I accelerate hard... I'm thinking it's the rearend torquing in a bit... is there a way to stabilize this without replacing the rearend? I was looking at the retention bars in the JCWhitney catalog...

ANybody have any thoughts?

Slip yoke coming out the back of the T-case or trans as the case may be. Remove the driveshaft and coat the slipyoke with teflon grease an you should be good for a year or so.
