10.5 rear end "click"

First off, I've already checked the brakes, thier fine. When I make a circle in a parking lot(left), I hear a "click" noise on every revolution of the rear tire. This is a rear bearing telling me its on its way out, correct ?

Check your u joints. Also listen for a squeaking while backing up.

The u-joints make about 4 revolution per one tire revolution, I think, I would hear 4 times as many clicks.

I just changed the gear oil in that about 2 months ago, oil was clean and no shavings. The limited slip seems to be working fine right now, I realize that it could still be making noise and the revolutions would be th same as the tire. I guess with 144k on rear diff it wouldn't hurt to do (axle) bearings anyway.

Have you noticed the noise just recently or since you changed it? Did you add in any friction modifier?

The noise is recent, I used Royal Purple and it already has the friction modifier in it.

I think we posted at the same time, but RP already has friction modifier in it.

Have you checked the E brakes, sometimes the shoes come apart and can make noises like that.
