4WD chirp

samedi 24 mars 2018

Noticed this during the pre purchase inspection, but since the chirp was in 4wd only it was not high on my list of priorities.

The chirp is in sync with wheel rotation but is intermittent. Heard a clunk from the right front when pulling away from a stop, a few times.

It can be heard when drifting into the garage, with the gear selector in N. But when I get out of the RTV to diagnose the source, by rocking the rig, it does not chirp.

Flat out on a straight away the front end sounds noisy (gear noise) in 4wd, when its not chirping.

4wd is operational, but for how long?

BTW changed the front diff lube to 75-90 synthetic gear oil before diagnostics. Did not see any metal particles but it was coal black.

Did not come up with anything helpful using the search feature. An unusual problem for this RTV?
