ignoramus15447 wrote if you suspect the carrier bearings why not just go ahead and replace them while you have it open because i am not sure what the issue it. it is easy enough to open the diff and pull the axles the second time. looking at the mess of metal chips in there when you first opened it up i have been thinking all along that every bearing in the axle has got to be damaged. that grinding noise really sounds like confirmation. if the carrier bearings are bad the pinion bearings have got to be too. they spin several times faster too. this damage may be too subtle to be visibly obvious until the bearings are pulled out and the lube totally cleaned off but the pressure applied at the contact points of these roller bearings are huge and any crud getting between roller and race will leave dents. jon .

it would appear to be a code 0161... o2 sensor bank 2 sensor 2 has an issue. this is the post-cat sensor so its either a bad sensor broken wiring etc. it needs to be fixed but you can drive the truck - it wont hurt anything if it were a pre-cat o2 sensor that would affect your a/f ratio and that could cause other problems. .

budd cochran wrote if you or anyone else was to quote from any other book by copy/paste typing it out or by paraphrase you and the others would accept it without comment unless it was an obvious teasing. not true at all. how long have you been here just about anything anyone says here is commented on usually to disagree! however if i a fundamental christian quotes for any non-preaching reason by any of the previously mentioned methods from the holy bible i am accused of preaching and i am derided insulted and abused for it. thats because you dont use imo. you tell others that your beliefs are the only correct ones and anyone who disagrees is wrong. youve admitted you feel your purpose is to try to bring others to believe the way you do. that is preaching. .

budd cochran wrote oh yes mr moderator. you disagree and refuse to consider anything different even when its what is written in the bible. you disagree and refuse to consider anything different as well. why am i wrong but youre right its not a matter of moderating. i am just saying that you are a hypocrite. you have no respect for others beliefs if they differ from your own. i have told you that i respect your views. failure to return that is what people deride you for. .
