My truck has started to whine when I'm in drive. Its consistent with the RPM so when i hit the gas more to increase the RPM it gets higher pitched. The noise it makes is almost the same exact tone as when a truck/car is doing a burnout with 1 tire fire not the screech but the "buzz" when it gets going fast. I put it in reverse and drove up my street and it makes sort of like a ticking noise as im going.

Any Ideas what it could be? It doesn't do it in neutral.

 

Mine started to whine, then clang, then crunch and clatter, then BANG....no more rearend. Where does the noise seem to be coming from?

 

the rear. this is what im thinking too because i'm still running the poor 7.5 on 33s and im not easy on it at all. Looks like i need to piece together this 8.8 before it goes bang lol

 

Ya, it could be your rear going out. I know on my mom's expo it makes a whine like you are talking about. Its coming from her rear end. I think hers will go out in the near future.

 

perfect timing, right before winter even begins fml.

but whats odd is that in neutral the rear axle will still be spinning and it doesn't do it in neutral

 

Anyone else got something else it may be?

 

IMMA PICK THE 7.5 UP AND IM GONNA DROP IT ON YA ****IN TOE



7.5 RIP

 

YOU ARE A ****** *** **** **** ****

 

I have sounds similar to those, but I'm pretty sure mine is coming from the front. Not looking forward to the cost of the repair. I feel your pain.

 

yeah i hope its just my axle im going ot take it in tomorrow to get looked at. i know its not the front end because when i get up close to the front end and hit the gas i cant hear it then when i sit normally in the seat i can hear it.

 

Mine did that for a while, then I realized it was my wife sitting next to me. I kicked her out...problem solved!

 

cool story bro

 

Glad you likes it Pedro

 

lol

 

Yea, I'm pretty sure mine is CV axles. And pretty sure I have a pinion seal leak. Amongst other annoying problems, lol.

 

if its not the axle my dad told me to just sell it but i refuse lol

 

so i brought it to a shop earlier i described whats going on and he said it sounds like a u joint. it clunks now going slow in drive lol. Its going in on Saturday to get checked/fixed. Hopefully it won't cost me an arm and a leg to get it fixed.

 

....i can't pull the driveshaft off to look myself because i've got a **** load of school work to do and no garage so id rather leave it somewhre

 

 

Ya, sounds like it could be u-joints also. Mine squeaked bad when mine went out.

 

Didn't think of that, hopefully that's it. You should really try to find some time to do it yourself. I think it was $22 when I did them myself. Parts/labor on something that simple is going to suck.

 

I'll have no time lol i work 43 hours next week and the sound is getting worse each time i take the truck out something that will suck but whatever it'll need to get done haha

 

Gotcha.

 

yeah im pretty much SOL right now

 

43 hours in a week aint sh*t son.. lol


You mention that it doesn't do it in nuetral. Ok. When you're driving and accelerating pretty hard, does it sound the same as when you completely let off the gas? Rear end whine will change pitch or quit when you do this.
