I find that the tires make different road noise depending on speed and road. Off the throttle its easier to hear the road and driveline sounds that are normally masked by the engine. I bought some royal purple I was going to put it in my front hubs just havent had time yet. I dont get too much...
It will sense that as wheel slip and not go. You would have to put it in mode to drive it and will be limited to 4th gear. Did you check the driveshaft for play? Check diff and hub fluid? Tires can make road noise. Hub gearing can make noise if it's out of spec I think there are a few threads on...
I have used the self service car wash at nite before. You dont want to use too high pressure. And the self service bay has an oil separator in the drain your driveway probably dosnt.
Yes the neutral start protection is different and the wtec 2 is a bit more forgiving than the 3. You have the wtec2 the trans computer is behind the keypad and there is a vim module behind the passenger kick panel with trans related relays.
I never said you were imagining anything. I have lists of tacom warnings about flying driveshafts. It still happens in the military even with the TM requirements. There are special requirements to loctite the fan bolts but it's the whole clutch that separates when it comes apart.
Driveline hinging test. Only .0015 of an inch play allowed in u joints, slip joints and yokes. Excessive play will cause flying driveline parts. Seen that 6 or 7 times. Check fan clutch for flex play left to right. Worn clutch can come apart at the most in opportune time and toss the fan blade...
Grease all the fittings change oil check coolant level, diff and hub fluid check, check trans fluid, steering fluid. Repl air dryer and purge any moisture in air system.
Sounds like your batts are weak. You could try cleaning all the batt connections. The relay on the frame is aux start relay. Jumping the 2 big terminals will crank the truck.
I would get a few of each to have on hand. You can use blade fuses in place of the breakers if need be. You have 12 volt relays switching 24 volt circuits and vice versa. Do you have single digit trans control display or double digit? Double is wtec 2 and single is 3.
If the 3 pin control plug is the same as the warn mrap winches I have the plug for that. If you cant find a mate to the other its not hard to find a pair the same size and just replace it.
