I have a 97 XLT SOHC 4.0. I have noticed a strange noice comming from either the tranny or the engine when downshifting and applying the brakes together (Mostly, not always, braking down a hill). It sounds like a winding up noise or a wheezing. It only lasts for 5-7 seconds and then stops or if I hit the gas pedal it will stop. Any Ideas would be helpful.
 






Got this problem myself, just about to get it fixed, we think is the tranfer box but will let you know if it sorts it when its done.
 






it maybe your breaks.... backing plates on the pad itself sometimes loosen and cuase noise
