Default 04 Dakota T-Case

Hey guys was wondering if the T-Case runs low on oil, will it make a weird noise? My truck started making a weird noise and it sounds like its coming from there and I'm thinking it's low on oil.

Yes it can make a weird noise. Basically the chain and bearings will be starving for lubrication.

Check it soon!

Glad it wasn't the t-case. A u-joint is a lot cheaper.
