Thanks for take the time to register step by step and sher with us. I'll wait for the yoke lub work.

 

Nice writw up quintin.. On a side note, One of the guys in our shop has the same 1/2 impact as you, and I cant stand the way it sounds...

 

Thanks everyone.

It's a strange sounding bird, that's for sure, but when it's working right, it's a bad ****. Too bad I've had to send mine back three times already.

 

do they make a noise when they are going out?

 

The bearings, yes.

The seals, no (unless you're getting gear oil onto your brakes, which could cause a brake noise).

 

What kind of noise is it? I have a noise that I can't describe... Did you see my thread Quintin

 

A roaring type noise. And no, I didn't catch your thread. Link?

my truck is in the shop right now. they say the gears are fine, I need to get new brakes but he doesn't think that is causing the noise...

 

Anybody know what happened to the photos in this post? They didn't load for me.

 

Probably deleted them from his photo album.

 

Imagestation closed down and all my photo links broke. Sorry guys, I'll get them back up on my Photobucket account and fix the posts, hopefully sometime this weekend.

 

Can't wait to see it with all the pics back up. Surely one to save for future reference. Thanks Quintin!

 

I have an 02 screw 4x4 w/ the 9.75 and the limited slip-I need to do this on my truck thanks for the info very informative this is somthing my dad and I can do on a weekend!!!

 

Thanks Quintin for taking the time to document, can't wait to see the pics, I may be there someday.

 

Quentin,

Thanks for the write-up. I just turned 75,000 miles on my 2004 and my left seal is leaking (I can smell it and see little drops of oil in the wheelwells) so I am planning on doing this in the next few weekends. hopefully your pics will be back up.

Thanks again.
