rgallant Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 No easy answer, but a one inch long piece of metal is big. I hate to say it but I think you are to the pull it and inspect to see what is damaged. A 'crunch" from a diff is not a good noise. Alternately what does the piece of metal look like ? If you have an LSD it could be a failed plate rather than gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaMountianbiker Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Where do you live I have a 4.3 rear center section and a 4.6 center section with LSD. I would sell you one and it's easy to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
