spray straight water from a squeeze bottle straight at the idler pulleys,
then the belt, to isolate the problem.
any half-assed mechanic should be able to sort it out with a new CORRECT size belt $35 (there are a few different size depends on year), and or idler pulleys $70.
If that doesnt fix it, any decent mechanic should be able to say, well I think it is the power steering or A/C, water pump etc etc
you can run (but not drive) the engine with no belt to see if that gets rid of the squeel, there is a belt diagram on the radiator cross panel
search this forum or youtube for more details.
my mate is a very friendly and honest mechanic, who works at Gateshead, about 20min north of you, not a Jeep expert though.
another mate is an expert mechanic, well familiar with Jeeps, he is at Rutherford
You could ring Budgewoi Wreckers and get a recomendation
PM me if need be
