Getting pretty bad humming when on gas from the rear diff, also there is quite a bit of play at the yoke, maybe 1/8th of a turn...
I have an ARB back there as well, and it spits gear oil out the solenoid when disengaged.
High Country told me that it was likely not enough preload on the carrier which was allowing fluid to get in the line.
They ALSO told me that I would be in at about $500 or so if they could rebuild without new gears, and $700 plus if new gears were needed.
So... if anyone would be available to help me either a.) rebuild it, do what needs to be done, etc, or b.) point me in the direction of somewhere that would be able to perform this service at a cheaper rate, I would also appreciate it.
I'm in South Denver, but can drive/tow the jeep anywhere to get this done, but would prefer not having to pull the axle.
Sparknotes:
*noticeable humming from rear diff when on gas
*no noise when off gas
*lots of play at yoke
*arb engages properly but spits oil when disengaged
*don't want to pay HCP4x4 $500+ to fix it
Let me know if you can help - Thanks.
