Assistance needed please. I tried search but am not fully satisfied. Lately i have been having a huge noise from the drivetrain. I opened up the front diff plate. The bearings all look/feel fine. There is more back lash than i like but no excessive where marks on the gears. I closed it up with new oil. I had a bad oil leak on the oil cooler (545 rfe) which I now replace with an aftermarket cooler. It use to overheat a lot, so bad the shift points would change to high rpm. It was better for a small while after I topped up the gearbox fluid. Now it is bad. I hear a high pitched noise whilst driving yet cant find anything wron with front brakes. All shafts feel good. U joints and cv's. when i stand still idling there is no noise. It could be the diff. But what about trasfercase? The wife believes the noise is coming from the front. When I get home later, i will disconnect the front shaft and try again. Please help me identify it. Thanks |

Could it be tires? What kind a tread do you have? Did you try front to rear tire rotation to see if it changes things? |
