I have noticed that when im turning and taking off that there is a grinding noise coming from the rearend of my truck. It dosnt do it when you take off going straight only while turning. What do yall think it could be? I have also noticed it does it worse while turning right. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance....

 

I would say check your spider gears. But I am by far an expert on rear gears. Pretty much the one and only thing I dont get into on my truck. So my guess would be possibly be spider gears

 

Possibly worn clutches

 

I will have to look into it and see. It still drives good with no noise going down the highway and stuff. It only makes the noise when im just starting off and turning. I know my back breaks need new drums cause the are making a squealing noise when stopping. Something is probably broke in there or something. I have new shoes, wheel cylinder, and hardware kit on it but something aint right. Thanks for the replies...

 

My buddy had the same problem with his f150 turned out the clutches were sticking

 

Is there something I can do to make them stop sticking or am I up for a rebuild? I have never rebuilt a rear end how hard is it to change the clutches?

 

Do you know if you have a LSD or an open differential? It could be the sprider gears or the clutches. What you need to do is remove the rear inspection cover and see what happen.

 

It is an LSD anti spin differential according to the build sheet. I will probably pull the cover off tomorrow and check it out. thanks for the help..

 

It sounds like the clutch pack in the rear. (They aren't sticking, they're worn) If you're planning on keeping the truck longer than 50k miles, check into auburn gear instead of repacing the clutch pack.

 

Ok I will check into the Auburn gear cause I plan on keeping it. Where is the best place to look into getting an auburn gear for it?
