Alright guys you have been great help to me so here is another question,
On our new 1999 Chevy Silverado 4wd the 4wd pumpkin has a leak at the seal. My uncle who is a professional mechanic looked at it and said there was water in the oil. Ok it engages - dis eng fine. But when you put in it 4 high and turn on pavement it makes a grinding noise. He says that the water ruined the bearings and the whole deal needs replaced just shy of 1000 bucks.
Is it suposed to make a sort of grinding noise when you turn?
I don't know much about 4wd and am trying to get as many opinions as I can.
So you think that I can just change the oil and the seal?
Can you replace the bearings?
And lastly if the bearings are bad can they hurt anything when your in 2wd.
I'll try to tell you as much as I can
Thanks
Joe
