My 1028 has been flawless up till now. I bought this truck from Cucvrus. I must say he maintains these trucks great. Every system in this truck worked perfect when I got.it.
A few days ago I could hear a strange noise coming from the rear of the truck. It sounded like a brake shoe fell apart. After alittle test driving I found that the noise was only present on deceleration and would go away with acceleration. Right then I knew it was a problem in the rear. I thought it was the pinion bearing. I pulled the cover today and found I was right.
Soooo. I'm going to replace the bearings. I just ordered all parts needed from NAPA.I also drained the front diff and the transfer case. While it's on the lift I figured I should change those fluids as well. You can see the bad bearing in the pics.
