  1. OKay I went ahead and removed one of the badges just to see is the paint line was bad, and to my surprise its not noticeable. So i clean the area, and striped the badges down

     

    when i removed them

  2. I wouldn't say the sound gets louder. It's the worst at around 20mph if the rpms are low but I'm putting load on the system. As the speed climbs and the rpms are higher, the sound seems to level out and I don't feel the vibration through the floorboard. One thing I will add is that I can hear a little bit of a whining/roaring sound when I let off the gas between 40-50mph. That sounds like the front diff.

     

    I got a used low mileage front diff from a reliable source. Thinking about a transfer case too as I'm sure the chain is stretched out just from mileage and possibly other worn internals.

     

    Thanks for the replies. Always appreciated.

    you need to put the truck in the air, so you can spin the drive line and try to pin point the sound, ( bc i just put my front diff back in and now my transfer case is clunking, and its on the output shaft for the front diff... theres a good bit of slack on the drive shaft ) NOT saying that is yours but best to have all 4 wheels off the ground to find it

  3. Man.... I'd be taking them things off! I'd be embarrassed to cruise around with them upside down...LOL!

     

    Believe me I know. But who ever repainted the truck did so while the emblems were on the truck.

    So I will have to have the doors repainted

  4. So on my truck someone put the badges on upside down and then repainted the truck, and i just found out when i went to pull them off.... :icon_bs:

    so the doors are staying 55 for now......... and the tailgate luckily wasnt like that
