I took my Dakota down to the dealer this morning,because the rear end noice
is a concern.The differential fluid was replaced,with the synthetic
type.Road tested the Dak...still the noise.

A different tech drove it,then put her up on the lift,while the other tech
ran her up to speed.Listened with a stethascope,and made the determination..

Worn Pinion Bearing.

Am going in on Wednesday to have it done.It will be under warranty,even
though i have 37,780,because the condition pre-existed before 36,000.
