Another unknown whine noise
My '00 GC, 145,000 mi, has developed a whine from 35 mph and up. It's only under steady speed or acceleration, and changes tone over bumps- leading me to believe it was u joints or suspension related. I replaced rear u joints, no change (they were a little stiff). Then I have noticed that on certain road surfaces, the noise is gone! I understand it could be transfer case, front or rear diffs, ect, but now I'm thinking it could be tire noise. I have Dunlop A/T Radial Rovers 245/70 16's with about 60% tread left. All tires look good, and have GREAT traction in the snow. Any ideas?
Thanks for your help, Mark the fireman
