So was mine. I greased it and it ended the noise. It took me a while to find the sound.

If you have a flexarm kit, the joints do not come greased, you have to grease them.

Any waterproof grease works well, I use a grease gun and some OEM Dodge/Chrysler joint grease from autozone. Just remember to grease every oil change.
