hey, the jeeps a little broke and just asking for any suggestions.... Many of you have years more experience then me with Jeeps, and I am at a loss.
I did search, but I am still at a loss
Here are the symptoms
1) Grinding/Thumping noise when under load which goes away when I let off the gas.
2) the noise gets faster/slower with accel/decel
3) grinding is worse when decel in 4wd
4) before parking it noticed a slight squeak at slow speed
5) cant tell where the noise is coming from since the uni-body transfers sound into the cabin
Now, i checked the T/C and its topped off, as is the rear dif.
Rear ds is solid, doesn't rotate or shift when in park
Front ds rotates when in park about a quarter inch side to side
No visual leaks from front/rear difs, T/C, or Tranny
ANY suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance,
Nick
