I have gotten a howling noise from the transfer or the rear axle. I have order new parts for overhaul of the transfer. The noise is coming at around 30mph, and is constant. Not affected by drive/coast and/or turning.
I cannot feel any play in the pinion. No oil leak. If it is the rear axle it is probably carrier bearings? If I only replace the carrier bearings will I need to set up the preload and all that stuff over again? Or could I just put the shim pack right back where they were.
I have an 89 with bendix abs. If I should replace the whole axle what years can I use? Can I swap the abs rings and sensors?
regards
Torfinn
