Squeaky Squeaky Noise

84 S10 Blazer. 2.8l V6. 2wd
I Have This Noise That Baffles Me. Everytime I Step On The Gas, Something Up Front Goes "squeak-squeak" And It Speeds Up As I Speed Up. It Doesn't Sound Like The Brakes (replaced Last Month), And It's Not The Fuel Pump(replaced Last Night), And It Hust Blows My Mind. And Since Nobody Will Drive My Truck But Me, And The Only Time You Hear The Noise Is When It's Moving, I Can't Fidn Out Where In The Front The Noise Is Coming From. I Have Noticed That It Makes More Noises When I Turn On A Curve To The Right Or Left, And I Have Noticed The Steering Wheel Has A Lot Of Play In It. Could This Be Steering Issues? Sould It Be The Power Steering Pump?

Does it do it while in park if you rev it?

Yep! Sounds Like Wheel Bearings To Me.

Does Not Do It When Revving.
But There Is A Noise That Is Seperate From The Squeaky Squeaky Noise, And I Know It Has Something To Do With The Speedometer, Because Everytime It Makes The Second Squeaky Noise, The Speedo Needle Jumps A Little

I Don't Think It's The Bearings, I Took Them Off And They Looked Ok

You can't test bearings by looking at them.

This sounds vaguely familiar. Speedometer cables can make a squeek-squeek sound if they are bent or kinked or otherwise damaged. I've had an older Monte Carlo who's speedo cable would chirp-chirp whenever the weather was cold. It only made the noise until the car warmed up.
Hope this helps.

To check the wheel bearings, jack the blazer up in the front and pull in and out on the tire. There should be no movement at all. The back are hard to check because they use a floating bearing or called something similar to that. I thought mine were out in the back cause when I pulled on the wheel it went donk donk and moved alittle. They told me that was normal.
I have a similar sound on my 93 as well. Mine is tin or some type of metal harmonizing with the engine. Cat Converters/exhaust and loosely attached, thin metal are good for making noises that squeek or rattle...
