Hi I am looking for some rear axle advice.
I have a rotational noise that seems to be coming from my Rear end. I have had the truck up on a lift with the transmission in drive and used the screwdriver stethoscope method to narrow it down to the rear end. we then took off the differential cover and looked at the gears. they were worn some but nothing to indicate something catastrophic. We filled it up with fresh oil and I have been driving it for several thousand miles since. The noise is growing by the week. My question is: is there a bearing that is accessable to a non pro, that has a fair amount of creeper time, that is a likely culprit. Also I cannot find a good technical drawing of my 2001 F250 rear axle. any help would be appreciated.
