So heres the issue, old dana35 was making a rubbing noise. Pinion slop due to inner bearing. Bought a 8.25 and swaped it in. Now im getting a howling noise that increases with speed
Doesnt happen in nuetral so i dont think its wheel/ axle bearings or carrier beatings. No slop in pinion, could it be a bad mesh between ring gear and pinion? I tried tightening the pinion nut to see if it was loose. Very tight, but theres only two threads showing . Getting frustrated
Itsnot tire noise.
Fluids are all good tcase and tranny need a fluid change but im confident thats not the issue.
Gonna recheck fluid in rear diff, changed it when i swapped it in.
I dont think is drum noise.
Am i missing anything?
Thanks guys. Idk what to do, i guess i gotta drop the cover again and inspect the gears and carrier and wheel bearings
