Default Please help me with this sound my rear is making *Pics and Video*

I think I'll let my car do all the talking.

Anyone know what this noise could possibly be?


The RED arrows indicate where the noise seems to be coming from.

The other arrows I can hear the noise in the breaker bar but it is not as intense.

I already changed the wheel bearings......working on changing the axle.. any other ideas?


**videos are uploading**give me 15 mins.

It almost sounds to me like a bad axle bearing, better take the axles out and check it out.

Differential bearings will cause the same noise and travel down the axle shafts. How many miles on car?

60 K

if it were the differential bearings, why would it be the strongest sounding and vibration at the extreme wheel area.

Your axles tie into splines inside the differential and any movement from the splined side of the shaft will show up on the wheel end. I have seen uneven tire wear with bad differential bearings.

****New Info****

Ok so I decided to do a little more testing.....

I had my dad HOLD the right rear wheel so it couldnt move, put it in first, the LEFT wheel started spinning and the right didnt move cuz he was holding it.

Guess what- NO SOUND NO VIBRATION -

So if the bearing in the differential were bad, wouldnt I still be hearing them? Because the differential IS moving....

Other than the wheel bearing on the right rear tire, WHAT else could be making noise?

Keep in mind I have taken off the disc and caliper, so now the ONLY thing in there is the axle and the backing plate....

Sigh........

Well got it all fixed up thanks to one of the members here who sent me an axel for shipping only !!!!! YOU Marc You rock!!!

here's what the problem was. I dont know why these marks were not like this the first time i took it out, all i can guess is that when I hit this thing in the road (that dented the rim) maybe it caused some marks and they eventually wore away to this..

So the problem was just a axle? I am having uneven tire wear, and what seems to be some type of vibration in the rear. Would a bad diffential cause this? I can't hear any noise over my loud exaust.

Here's the source of the problem - for some reason the first time i took the axle out these marks WERE NOT THERE.........

I think what happened is I hit something so hard it dented the rim, so at the same time it must have f'd up the axle too...
