Overtorqing the pinion nut can cause issues.

instead of having the dealership up here work on it, I had the guy that sets up the axles at JTE (jeep Truck Eng.) work on it....what had happened from them doing that is it crushed the pinion bearing, which split it up into like 4 chunks...luckily none of it dropped down into the fluid...
basically if you have the dealer do it, i'd be standin in the shop watchin em like a hawk...good luck
Just got intouch with a family friend who is a local mechanic. He said the same exact thing, actually did it wrong once and cost himself $1600 fixing the guys truck. He is going to go with my parents tonight to get the truck.
Got the truck back, suddenly its not making the noise anymore and they said they did nothing to it except drive it, i crawled under, the rear diff cover had been off since i took it in so i dont know what they did, but its fixed for now.
