This bulletin is being revised to add additional information to the models. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 03-04-19-004 (Section 04 -- Driveline/Axle).<A name=ss1-1485591><A href="http://service.gm.com/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=1485591&evc=numSrch#ss1-1485591" target="_blank">
<H5>Condition</A></H5>
Some customers may comment on a growl or moan-type noise coming from the front axle above 50 km/h (30 mph). This condition may be described as a noise that phases or cycles in and out. This noise is present in the 2WD mode only, and may be present whether the vehicle is accelerating, decelerating, or at a steady speed. The noise goes away in 4WD or Auto 4WD modes.<A name=ss2-1485591><A href="http://service.gm.com/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=1485591&evc=numSrch#ss2-1485591" target="_blank">
<H5>Cause</A></H5>
This noise may be caused by a low clearance condition within the differential in the front axle assembly. In the 2WD mode, the front differential has a large amount of relative motion between the differential pinion and side gears. In the 4WD or Auto 4WD modes, the transfer case motors the front propeller shaft, and the relative motion between the differential gears is reduced or eliminated, so the noise is eliminated.<A name=ss3-1485591><A href="http://service.gm.com/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=1485591&evc=numSrch#ss3-1485591" target="_blank">
<H5>Correction</A></H5>
Replace the front differential case, P/N 26018131. This is the component bolted to the ring gear. It is NOT necessary to replace the differential gears unless unusual wear is observed

Ouch. PC, I sure hope your truck is still under warranty. That sucker could get expensive.

problem child I have been monitoring this site for year since I bought my truck and you truly must have gotten the truck from hell.I work for a major heavy trucking company.They buy several thousand Freightliner units per year.I swear we can get two units that you know came down the line real close together.One will be sound with not too much bad history of repairs on record,and the other be a piece of junk.Go figure..It's like one was built on wedesday when everyone was awake,and the other on Monday when everyone was still hungover and drunk.

I have the worst luck on the planet when it comes to buying things.
My buddy and I were buying a pair of Colt gold cups. I said bob let me
have yours and you take mine because you know I will get the one that
jams. He got the good one after the switch and I got the 45 that jammed.
I will never forget that.
Its a curse.....http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley11.gif
