"02 Z71 rearend noise
My rearend developed a whining noise thats constant. Doesn't change when cornering. Put it on stands in gear, if I stop right side tire it quits. Doesn't sound like axle bearing. Opened cover on rearend,different looking carrier than normal GM. Any ideas on what type carrier it is and possible noise?

Are you thinking axle bearing? best bet replace all bearings pinion , carrier & axle or do these carriers problematic?

With 225 K on the Ole Gal I guess it was time for an overhaul. The inner pinion bearing was probably the main culprit. There was also pitting on the carrier bearings also. I went ahead and replaced all bearings and seals. I cracked one of the shims for the carrier,are they difficult to find ?
