rear diff noise
First off, I'am new to this forum, Hello. I have a '02 350 w/ 63K on it. Now I've noticed a growling noise from the rear diff. I've pulled the cover and droped the drive shaft. The pinion has some rotation play to the ring but nothing I'd call bad. And no side to side or in/out play. The pinion to ring gear teeth look as though the mesh is correct (I checked this by site only with grease on the ring). The axels/bearings have no play. But still as I spin the wheels the noise get louder. Any thoughts??? I stumped.

My limited "locked" up at about 41,000. It was so loud I thought I giving people headaches that were going the other direction!! Turned up the radio and just kept driving it, at 145,000 it stopped making all that noise!! No differance in traction that I can tell!! Now, when I turn left or right I feel a pulsing sensation!! It feels like 3 marbles under the inboard wheel then nothing then 3 marbles again!! But only when under power. Coasting will not do it!!
