Help! Squeeking noise after pinion shim install
I put on 2" lowering shackles and had a vibration from 10-40 mph so i ordered the 2 degree pinion shim and after researching it i was told to install them with the fat side toward the rear. Test drove it and the vibration went away a little but was still there. So the wife takes the truck today and tells me it is squeeking, i thought no big deal i'll check it out and when you put it in drive and accelerate it sounds like a belt slipping that gets faster and higher pitched as you go. Now it only does this in drive, reverse is fine no noise at all.:mad:
After looking on djm's website they say to install the shim fat side toward the front. I reversed the shims and the noise is still present. So did I f up something on the drive shaft? I got under the truck and there is some movement at the carrier bearing. Anyone got any ideas what I did to my truck? Sorry for the long post. Thanks
