Drive train Grinding?
Hello Everyone,
I have done some research but no one else is having the exact same problem as me.
Everyone once in a while, while driving my 06 350 SRW at slow speeds, I hear a grinding noise coming from the left side of the truck. It is almost like a winding grinding noise if that makes sense. It will grind slow to a stop, and then I hear a clunk.
This is a very intermittent problem. The tires are completely shot on the truck, and I thought that would be it, but considering it is intermittent and the clunk I hear as I come to a stop I figured it could be it.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Check the brakes it may have a rock. Thats what i'd do first. If rotors are grooved badly that could be making the the noise. Could be a piston in the calipers sticking too I just replaced one on my 2011 f350 which was making a clunk as well.

Rotted ebrake plates....almost guaranteed. Look at the (lack of) ebrake anchor pins and a rot hole where they once were. Time to pull the rotors, thats fun with all the munched ebrake parts floating around.
