Horrific Grinding Noise
Ok, MF'ers...I need some help, when I take a slow turn, usually going up a hill, and turning, I hear this grinding sort of noise...I have progressive springs, and cc plates...so I don't know what's the matter...has anybody had this problem before?

RE: Horrific Grinding Noise
Grinding while turning, sounds like your differential is shot. It may be stuck locked, and when you turn they are trying to stay turning at the same speed, and grinding the gears in there.

RE: Horrific Grinding Noise
First thing I would do if I was you, change the oil in the differential. It may be as simple as the oil is old, or is low due to a leak, and that is why it is grinding. However whatever you do, do not drive it around alot with it grinding. You do not need to replace your entire differential if it can be avoided.
