Rubbing noise from rear...what is it?
I have a 2003 7.3 super duty with 60k miles that I haven't had any trouble with until now.
When I turn the wheel (one direction or the other) and accelerate I hear/feel a rubbing noise coming from the rear end. It doesn't do it when you accelerate from a stop without turning. I don't think I have ever noticed it until I accelerate.
It's been to rainy lately to climb under and check anything out but looking for ideas.
Any ideas on what to check first???
Thanks

If you think it is coming from the rear end, I would do this and get a closer look at the gears, ect. click here.

Update...
I just wanted to post an update for anyone that finds this post and wondered with the resolution was.
I pulled the cover and did a close inspection. Everything appear to be just normal wear. I replaced the cover, fluid and was sure to add an additive before I finished up. After hitting the road again I noticed that the notice was the same as before.
I drove a few days to be sure everything was mixed well. At that point I added a bit more additive and after driving for a few days the noise is completely gone.
Thanks for all the help everyone!
