Video of said noise:
Hey guys! Super stoked to finally have my truck running again, lots of new components. Including 38 inch mud terrains, a front axle rebuild- knuckles, hub/bearings, front brakes and the differentials.
Had both the front and rear differentials rebuilt at a reputable 4x4 shop since I wanted the warranty that came with it and for the price it was worth it for me. Nitro gear 5.29s and an ARB rear air locker. Also saved me some time. Turns out maybe I should have done it myself... Third members were removed by me dropped off and then picked up and installed by me again.
What are your guys' thoughts on the grinding noise in the video? Stethoscoped where the front differential pinion bearing would sit and the noise seems to be coming from there. Sounded like someone was grinding coffee beans while I was on the highway. Noise is most prominent when you're on the accelerator and you let off. Also coasting downhill it gets quite loud. Rear differential seems to be okay.
I don't have alot of experience rebuilding differentials (done maybe 4-5 in the past) but this seems like something the shop messed up on. I have about 80 miles on the differential rebuilds.
Just wanted to get an opinion before moving forward.
