throwout bearing squeals

[bronx23]

the throwout bearing in my truck was squealing like a cricket im guessing because it had been sitting for about 3 years then was driven again. i changed it out today and squealing was gone, until just now when i got home its back! not as loud but i can hear it. please help me. thanks

Did you install a new pilot bearing or bushing in the crank? http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_frown.gif
