Strange metal grinding sound
This sound come fromt the driver side rear wheel whenever i decelerate and reverse.. mainly when I drop the clutch.. or let off the gas pedal
I think I need a rebuild or a new rear end.
does anyone know where to get a ford 8.8 rear end? Do they come on ford Rangers?
The reason I ask is Direct Freak Uses ford 8.8 on his ride.

Hey hey ... as the last post said, check elsewhere 1st ... Those diffs are pretty strong if you've got a stock engine... Caliper's would sound like a good place to starrt ... Mine did that before ... that was the problem

Sounds like bearings to me. Mine only made noise on the right side when the rear beaings went out. Like everyone else said, tho, check the brakes first and make sure they are fine. If its the bearings you can usually hear them if you put the rearend up on stands and turn the wheel by hand. Sometimes you feel it more than hear it.
