HI my gear has started making a high pitch noise when the clutch is pressed, when you go to pull of the its juddering the whole van
any help would be needed before i but new box and problem could still be there ?????

The squealing is probably the release bearing on the clutch and it sounds as if your clutch could also be worn out.

Sounds exactly like my symptoms. If it is the same as my symptoms then it will be the release bearing. See here: http://www.berlingoforum.co.uk/showthread.php?tid=322
I suggest you do not drive the vehicle as when the release bearing lets go you'll be stuffed by the side of the road. With the vehicle in neutral, handbrake on and engine running look at the clutch release arm in the side of the gearbox and see if it is chattering, if it is I'll bet its the knackered release bearing jumping around on the gearbox input shaft. If you want to know anymore give me a shout

Id put a whole clutch kit in it - juddering whilst taking up drive can also be a characteristic of a knackered friction plate
