Uhhh… Should this be in my rear diff???
So there is a knocking noise in my rear diff. its been there for month and months. i drained it and cleaned it out to find a washer sitting in the back on the bottom. its not broke or anything. how did it get there and where could it have come from. its silver dollar size. i think the noise is coming from the pinion gear or bearing. is there a washer there that could have fallen off causing play?

I have had no work done on the rear diff ever. i've owned the jeep for a year now. 9 months with it running.

Nine years? I believe it was nine months, LOL. Anyway, it sounds like it's time for a close inspection of your diff. and get the spider washers in place.
