So I've been having this weird grinding noise lately. Started after a wheeling trip at Greenridge, and hasn't gone away. It sounds just like a pinion angle grind/vibe, but I'm only lifted 2" and have a t-case drop. I thought it was my driveshaft u-joints, so I checked those. Good as new on the rear axle. It only makes noise when I'm on the pedal, coasting it goes away. So it's gotta be something power related. I'm starting to think my rear axle is toast. The jeep has 200k+ on it, but I treat her pretty well. New diff fluid went in a couple months ago, and everything looked fine. I have jumped it a couple times, but nothing that would bend an axle tube (I hope). Any other ideas? Maybe something needs grease? I'm leaving for the beach on Friday, and it would be really sweet to get this taken care of by then.
