Rear Wheel Bearings

[Rev]

I think that's good advice from both sources. I wouldn't hesitate to replace rear wheel bearings if you think they're bad. It's really not too tough to do it yourself if you want to. If you can do your own brake job, it's really only a little more work to remove the rear axles and take them to a machine shop to have the bearings pressed off and new ones on. You might lose a little gear oil , but that's easy to replace.

I do believe the advice about putting it in neutral and coasting to determine source of noise. I don't think the diff would make any noise at all in that mode.

Check rear end oil level before going into replacing anything. It should be level with the plug. Low oil level can make noise.
