hi all,
can anyone spend a second or two and anwswer some questions on opening the rear gear and
inspecting it?
reason for doing it: I need to locate where the vibration is coming from in the rear of
truck. vibration only happens at 80 to 90mph. ( vibration is like low pitched hum and
follows the speed of the wheels so i think its rear diff or wheel bearing. wheel
bearings was service 2 years ago but the rear diff has never been service in the life of
truck. ~13 years )
do i need to replace the old gasket? (Yes or No)
Do I need a drain pan? (Yes or No)
do i need any special wrenches? (Yes or No)
how do i fill it with gear oil again?
What gear oil should be used?
I was just going to look for any chipped or cracked teeth in the gears. how does one
check for "play" in the gears?
this is a non-LSD type differential.
thanks!!!
