So I took it for a ride today, put about 40-50 miles on it. It doesn’t sound as bad as it was, but the noise is not totally gone. It start whining at about 35mph, when I let go of the gas, it stops whining, when I give it gas, it hums again. Defimetly better than it was. On the highway it wasn’t...

The thing I don’t understand is, the day I bought it, I drove it home, and it wasn’t making any noise. Drove it about 20 miles on the highway to my house. Then I probably drove it about 100 miles in the next couple days before it started making noise, and as soon as it started making noise, I...

I’m afraid it’ll strip it almost instantly (not the threades but the square itself). Should I apply...

I just bought an 02 ranger 4.0 with 58k miles a few days ago. The Test drive seemed fine, I didn’t take it on the highway. So I Drive it home on the highway, and noticed a little hop in the rear, no big deal. I noticed the diff cover was wet, but it was a rainy day. I drove it the next 2 days...
