Rear end growl carrier bearings? 2000 GT
i am hearing a growl from the left side of the rear end. i have
smoothed the rear disks and pads. i don't think it is brakes. my tires are bad, and they do sing on pavement, but i hear a growling patterned sound from the rear end when going 30-35 mph. it isn't a constant noise, rather a patterned churn like a warped brake rotor. can a broken belt on a tire sound like that? there is a steady growl in a right turn. i am trying to figure out if it is a bearing, tires, or brake rotor. can a broken belt in a tire do that. it does quiet a little when i let off the gas, but it doesn't howl like a pinion bearing. i have original gatorbacks with 32000. is there a way i can tell if i have bad carrier bearing without taking it apart? |
