[QUOTE="olywa, post: 1402525, member: 19135"] went out last night in the snow and after about an hour of wheelin' the front diff started making noise. another hour in to it and it really got bad..... The axle ...... pinion brakes ouverson locker The problem...... So when you are in 4wd it makes this clunking sound almost like the pinion is hitting the frame or ?? clunking sound... while it is under a load no noise speeds over 15-20 loud clunking.....in 2wd no noise until high speeds or going down hills with no load on it .......hit the brakes and much worse noise....... can rotate the drive line about a 1/4 turn or so.....no up or down or in and out feels tight except for twisting ..... My thoughts....... It feels like the spiders would be worn out if a normal axle....but in this one has a locker.....so is the locker bad...... maybe a pinion bearing.....but would this account for the play in the drive line...... or could it be something completely different......
