    Power Antenna 600$ that was a 15 mins job to replace the actual antenna. If the motor is good the antenna can be bought from partsouq cheapest place to buy. 🤯

    Humming Noise when Coasting. Update 9/6/23

    Update: After 15k miles, the vibration in my truck has been increasing gradually. I recently acquired another used transfer case to eliminate it as the source of the issue, confirming it's the new T-case was not the culprit. Despite replacing two rear drive shafts the issue does not seem to go...

    Humming Noise when Coasting. Update 9/6/23

    Got the LC back from the shop, inconclusive diagnosis. Rear DS was noted to have some slop, however w/o the rear DS LC now has developed the same symptoms with the front driveshaft. The shaking seems to increasing as I drive more. Seems like I have to wait for something to go bad. Hopefully not...

    Humming Noise when Coasting. Update 9/6/23

    Thanks for the kind words! I Absolutely love my trusty 20-year-old 100! It's been a blast for my family and me. 😄 Checked the T-Case oil, driveshaft, and rear control arms - all seem fine. Yet, the vibes are getting worse, and I can't risk a breakdown. It is my daily driver and I feel like...

    Humming Noise when Coasting. Update 9/6/23

    Body vibrations most notable when accelerating around 50, and then 65 to 70. All functions on the T-Case work, shifts in H-N-L, center lock working as well. Last night I drove in 2wd and with the rear shaft out it smooths out by 75%.

    Yes I checked that, I thought maybe the new rear shaft is bad so I installed the old one. It does the excat same thing.

    Humming Noise when Coasting. Update 9/6/23

    Update number 20 :bang: new transfer case and new drive shafts but now I have vibrations on acceleration. At this point I am completely lost, the old t-case and driveshaft with 260k were smooth only symptom was the noise.

    Humming Noise when Coasting. Update 9/6/23

    Update and a question. I am now an expert in taking the transfer case in and out within 2-3 hours 1st replacement T-Case from ebay had one of the bolt holes broken but I only saw it after I had removed my T-Case. Lesson learned, thoroughly inspect the parts before starting the work. Got my...

    Humming Noise when Coasting. Update 9/6/23

    Same noise when rear drive shaft was out. Changed the T-Case oil no metal shavings but a lot of metallic color sludge. The only thing that makes the noise go away is when I put the t-case in neutral while de accelerating.

    Last couple of seconds its very clear and this is while the LC was coasting. It goes away as soon as I shift into N. Forgot to mention Tires are new as well. Michelin defenders stock size.
