You may have lost the bearing. The contact between the ring and pinion is set with a gauge and shims. If you continue to use it you may do alot more damage. Get a repair book and look at what is involved. You might be able to take it apart and have someone set it up for you. Then put it back together. You can save some of the cost that way. But be very careful to block the truck up so it won't move. Truck parts you can buy. People parts you can't buy. Good luck.
