Rear Axle Sound
Hello! I am a new owner of a Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ from 1997 Limited
Since I bought the car, the rear axle diff makes a big time sound when I take turns at different speeds, but the more I turn the wheel, the more sounds it makes.
I have opened the diff and I found out there was a red fluid in it. I suppose it was transmission fluid as it was red, while it should have been yellow.
It seems stucked, the inner bolt seemed to be a little bit loose.
I have put the correct oil in it, i think it s an open diff, although I have received an opinion that it has LSD while I spin the wheels they go the same direction.
I want to run more with the car to see if something gets unstucked.
Any opinions are greatly appreciated ✌🏻
