[QUOTE="William maybee, post: 1019877, member: 72309"] I have heard this noise before in other rear ends, when I worked for GM. I just can't remember the cure. For some reason I am thinking back then we just replaced the spider gears. I just don't want to guess and end up replacing tons of parts for no real reason. The bearings, races, seals, rotors and pads on the front have been changed. I did look at the tires and the wheels and there is no indication of any kind of scrubbing. The plastic wheel wells look fine as well. It feels and sounds like when the body weight shifts to the right side of the vehicle the scrubbing noise starts. Its not crazy loud (yet), but it is there.
