My 2001 Dakota 4x4 is making and wining sound under the truck only going forward one of my friends drove it and said it sounded like the ring and pinion so we check it and had to replaced everything ring and pinion,spider gears ect.ect..... but as my luck go's it is still making the noise any suggestions on what eles it maybe hating my dodge right now

 

Welcome to the dodge forum. Red

 

Welcome to the forum!!

 

Moved and bumped.

 

U joints, tires, transmission. it could be any number of things. are there any more symptoms? vibrations of any kind?

 

if its whining in forward only while moving, definitely in the transmission IMO.

 

yeah we need a little more information before we can help you...


btw welcome to the forum

 

No Vibrations of any kind and transmission shifts fine and no noise when shifting any way it could be the transfer case? The whine stops when truck goes backwards and is not as loud going down a hill and I replaced the U joint's when I put in new ring and pinion and I also have new tires.

 

Greetings Tennessee:
Do you have a video camera?
I saw DAVE ROCK of DAVIDSFARM on Youtube do this...
He taped a videocamera under a car and then was able to watch the suspension in operation first hand!
Or use a micro-recorder and find out where the highest pitch sound is coming from.
I have to recommend DAVIDSFARM on Youtube...he educates you on numerous subjects...and don't forget to type in and watch the "Redneck Rollercoaster"!
