Ok. I'm pretty up on the rear end locker and how it bumps every now and then in turns and such... but I'm comparing my 2002 vs. my 2004 and on my 2004 I've noticed that if I take a sweeping left turn at about 20-35mph with out accelerating I here the rear end slight pop/clunk but not to the point I think I should be thinking somethings wrong. This sound is more predominate first thing in the AM. I've changed fluids and all are topped off.

Are others hearing this as well... as I didn't hear it in my 2002. But then again in my 2002 that locker was a POS... and wouldn't let go when it was suppose to or go in when it was suppose to. The 2004 is much smoother and functions as what I fell a locker should. (when I say locker I also mean limited slip I guess)

just making sure I shouldn't be off to the dealer for a looksee...

edit... the sweeping turn is a long gradual left turn. Like in my neighborhood. Not a 90deg.
