guys,
I just replaced all the bearings in the back on the 86 gn.
both diff bearings and the 2 pinion. i did this because of a "bearing" noise. the rear pinion bearing was at fault, it was real bad. i also found a nickle sized piece of metal in bottom of the housing. i could not find where it came from.
anyway, i had the new bearing pressed on and reinstalled everthing. i made sure the shims went back in their correct locations and torqued to specs. Now i have a new noise!!!
loudest when letting off the gas. its a grinding noise and comes and goes. (intermittent).
what do you think???
i did reuse the crush sleeve....???
