Engine noise will running AC

In early Sept of 06, I noticed that while I run the AC and go into a turn, the belt (or something sounding the like) constantly squeak until I come out of the turn. I posted on here to see if anyone else was having the problem. Many responded saying that it was the belt and it needed to be tight. I took care of that...however no luck, it continued. I later recieved word on putting a "heavy duty" belt on it, so I put the Goodyear gatorback belt on it. $140 later, I still have the same problem. I understand that the truck is at a greater strain to compensate for the bigger tires and lift, but hell, its a freaking 4x4 Cummins turbo, seems it shouldn't have a problem. Anybody had a similar problem and developed a fix? Thanks in advance...Jamie

Have you been able to duplicate the sound while sitting still in the driveway with the hood up and someone else turning the steering wheel thus allowing you to possibly trace down exactly what is making the squeeeeeeeeek?
