    2005 denali awd 6.0 acceleration noise

    Sorry kinda sounded like I was being a smart butt on the giving a shit comment. But anyway, I split the transfercase inhalf expecting to see or fell a bad bearing but instead I found a bad spot in the shaft that's connected to the input shaft and a gear on that shaft. I saw it then put it back...

    2005 denali awd 6.0 acceleration noise

    Ok so in case anyone gives a shit. I picked up a used very low mileage transfercase and installed it today, and wahlah! No more noise! So after replacing the front differential bearings and seal and now a transfercase my denali is exceptionally quiet running down the hiway at 80 mph. And now I'm...

    Scratch that. Maybe a bw 4481. The 4485 wasn't installed until 07 in the denali

    2005 denali awd 6.0 acceleration noise

    Apparently I have a borg warner 4485 transfercase according to my rpo code of nr3. Which means I don't have the vicous coupler but some extra planatery gears to deal with

    2005 denali awd 6.0 acceleration noise

    Had it up on the rack and the transfercase makes all kinds of noise but can't duplicate the noise that I hear while driving at hiway speeds under load. But my mechanic buddy said the transfercase is way to loud. But also he was concerned about the awd situation. While on the rack and in drive...

    2005 denali awd 6.0 acceleration noise

    I just replaced the side caster bearings, axle bearings and pinion bearings and I'm sad to report this did not take care of the noise. So now I'm wondering about the driver side wheel bearing or the cv axle shaft or possibly ujoints. Which all feel ok when inspecting. There is some side to side...

    2005 denali awd 6.0 acceleration noise

    Along with checking the drain plug magnet for metal is there other ways to determine where the noise is coming from? The vibration/noise carries to the back as well. I really thought I had the right idea by pulling the front driveshaft for a test drive. I have zero experience will full time awd...

    2005 denali awd 6.0 acceleration noise

    Thank you for the heads up!! I'm putting it on the rack tonight to see if I can tell where the noise is coming from with wheels turning. I hope that I can duplicate it but I'm afraid that it won't show up without a load ---------- Post added at 10:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:01 PM...

    2005 denali awd 6.0 acceleration noise

    I recently purchased a 2005 denali with noise that I believe is coming from the front differential, I would like to take out front drive shaft and give it a test drive to see if it elimates the low roar that I'm getting under acceleration at hiway speeds just as son as I press on the gas peddle...
