Hoping someone in this group can lend some advice to me. My 2000 Ranger Extended Cab 4x4 has been having some noise problems. I had the front wheel hubs replaced, new brake rotors, new calipers, new brake pads, and new dust shields. The front differential was taken out, and the truck was driven to see if the noise was still there, and it was. It's like a rumble you would get from riding on cupped tires. The only thing is, we thought that too, and we switched wheels with my father's Explorer, and the noise is still there, just a little quieter. Anyone have any suggestions on what to try next or what to look for? We had the differential out and looked at the spider gears, and they look like new. The truck only has 62,000 miles on it. Any help will be greatly appreciated by myself and my mechanic who is pulling his hair out, and has a spot worn in his scalp from scratching his head.
Thanks,
Jerry
