    Humming Noise???

    You guys may want to kill me after all this help you gave me, But I really screwed up. The mechanic replaced the front pinion bearing, not the gear. He said to replace the gears would be a big job and he couldn’t do it. The bearing was all chewed up not the gear. SORRY - SORRY - SORRY...

    Humming Noise???

    Thanks for the replies to the post. I guess by best bet is to replace the U-joints and hope for the best. I will also add some Lucas. I did do a search for a used rear axle assemble with housing at car-part.com. It asks me if I need the one = 3500 series SRW or = 3500 series DRW. I don’t...

    Humming Noise???

    OK!!! Here is what happened. The week we had the big snow, I was sinning the wheels 2 or 3 times because of poor traction. One of those times I spun the wheels I had a 1600lb load on but did come out of it. Since this I put another 3000 miles on the van. It is a Chevy 3500 Ext. cargo van with a...
