About 1.5 months ago, I noticed a noise coming from my rear. It's not gear whine. It sounds like a cricket chirping. When I installed my gears I put new pinion and carrier bearings in but did not due the axle bearings. This was back in september. Tonight I replaced the axle bearings and seals and the noise is still there. Also put new gear oil in too. The old bearings were on their way out as they were not spinning smoothly at all and the seals were leaking. I'm at a loss as to what could be causing this noise other than maybe a bad pinion or carrier bearing. Maybe someone could shed some light on this noise. Also the gears are dead quiet and do not whine or bang, and have been that day since day 1.

Is it a squeeking noise when you go around a corner? Mine did that. The clutch pack was bad.

No. Does it is a straight line or while turning. Does not matter. The only other thing i can think of is maybe a u joint. I did read that they sometimes and chirp or squeak when they are going bad.
