My blower motor on my '97 855 GLT first started exhibiting the squeak / squealing sound on rainy days while turning left or right. This was about 8 years ago or so, at approximately 80k miles. I took it out and sprayed it with WD-40 and it was quiet for about 6 years. It started squeaking again about two years ago at about 120k miles, and I repeated the WD-40 treatment and sprayed a little white lithium grease on the motor shaft too. It hasn't made noise yet and I'll probably keep doing this until it's not effective anymore.
Blower motor removal is not a bad job on the 850. I used the great write-up by Ozark Lee which you can see here:

Good luck!
