I hear a grinding noise (metallic humm) only in 4x4 and not really in 4lo-can't tell there. The noise still persist even if out of 4x4 but with front wheels still locked. It seems to originate in the front diff area. From the records I sure don't see the fluid ever being changed there. The tk is at 95k mi or so (94 xe). Any ideas on this?
since I'll have to do the oil change in it, for sure, what kind of oil do I use? weights?
rear diff: i don't have an orange sticker on it, the wheels spin in the same dir when in N, how can I be sure if it is or isn't LSD? does it take the same grease as the front one?
I also saw something about replacing oil in the manual tranny. What kind of oil should I use there? and since I haven't looked yet, sorry, but where are the drain and refill plugs located? is there a separate compartment for clutch oil? if any.
I can't find my book that i had for my previous baby (RIP) so I'd appreciate your imput. thanks
