try it in different gears at the same speed, to isolate the noise to engine or transmission.
does it do it under load, coasting, in neutral rolling at 40, in 4wd, etc.....
does it go away if you cover the brakes, then try it just pulling the hand brake on.
this all helps work out if its a front or back axle problem, etc...
most bearing noises change when you press the brakes, as the shoes/pads help support the shaft. if it only changes on handbrake, them its rear axle, if it only changes when pedel is pressed its likely to be front.4x4toys.co.uk - Keeping you on and off the road...Comment
