Help with noise from left rear wheel area?
Hi
For a while now I'm noticing a klak-klak sound(sounds like metal on metal) from the left rear wheel area.
When the left rear drops into a pothole or off a rock, the sound is there.
Sometimes under power also.
But it is at worst when the difflock is engaged and the rear loses traction and spins.
I thought it might be the diff, but my friend stood outside today while I was driving an obsticle to detect where the sound is from. He said it looks as if though the rim is loose.
Any ideas what it could be, so I can check it out before it breaks.

Is jou wheel bearing nie klaar as hy sê dit lyk of die wiel los is nie? Jack hom op, Maak seker die wheel nuts is vas ) en ruk en pluk en draai die wiel en kyk of die bearing nog oraait is

En asseblief... ruk en pluk net aan die bakkie
Ek het daaiselfde klank al gehoor en wou nog vir jou dit genoem het maar dit het ook weer by my gat uit gewaai. Ek weet nie of dit kan wees nie maar dit klink ook amper soos 'n gear wat nie 100% opline met 'n ander een nie

Re: Help with noise from left rear wheel area?
Bennie, lyk my jy dink ek is een of ander dom stadsjapie pen pusher Ek ken darem van wheel nuts vasmaak.
Ek vermoed self dit kan die bearing wees, wou maar net hoor waarvoor ek anders moet uitkyk.
Herman, ruk gaan ek hom ruk. :x En regmaak gaan ek doen voor hy my laat staan
Cas, ekt gehoop jyt dit ook gehoor, het net self vergeet om jou te vra om spesifiek te luister.
Maar as jy nou se dit klink soos gear wat nie opline nie, hoe gaan ek dit vasstel?

Re: Help with noise from left rear wheel area?
Have you solved this problem yet? Maybe it is the rear leaf spring blades clapping together.

Hey Simon. I don't believe it could be the leave springs bashing together. If I remember correctly I only heard the sound comming from his bakkie when he's diiflock was switched on. And to me it sounded if the noise was coming from the pumpkin at the back or right rear wheel.

Re: Help with noise from left rear wheel area?
Thanks Simon, I'll look at the leafs too. My original thought was that something on the suspension rear could be loose or something.
I have not looked for the fault today, will definately try too find out what is wrong on Monday.
Cassie, it makes the noise without difflock engaged, in 4x4 and 4x2, on gravel and tar, espesially when the left rear drops into a pothole.

Re: Help with noise from left rear wheel area?
Bennie, waar wil jy gaan ry? Ek glo ek sal dit maak, net Yolandi is mos swanger, en na laas se storie het dok gese sy moet rustig vat en nie onnodig ry nie. En ons wil ook nie nou kanse vat nie, dis mos maar n teer saak. En sy wil nie nou eers in die bakkie dorp toe ry nie, want hy stamp blykbaar te veel.BenHurBul wrote:Riaan

Re: Help with noise from left rear wheel area?
Weet jy, nou dat jy dit noem... dit is wanneer ek dit ook gewaar het. Dit is wanneer een van die agterste wiele in die lug hang. Is dit nie dalk jou propshaft nie?ToyX4 wrote:Thanks Simon, I'll look at the leafs too. My original thought was that something on the suspension rear could be loose or something.

Re: Help with noise from left rear wheel area?
O.K. So today I put in a new bearing and seals, as the original bearing was shot.
But, the sound is still there if I pull up to a steep incline to let the rear wheels spin.
Also, when the wheel is jacked up and I turn the wheel, there is a bit of play before it turns the drive shaft. - Is this normal?
I also noticed that the second from the top leaf is broken
The mech at Toyota says it is normal backlash, but I find this hard to believe. Just waiting for the workshop manager to get back to work, then I'll demonstrate it to him.

Re: Help with noise from left rear wheel area?
THe noise was the broken leaf spring blades.
When fitting a new blade, should I do both sides, or can I only replace the broken one?

Re: Help with noise from left rear wheel area?
I thought it was something to do with the blades, depending on your finance, it would be better to remove the two rear spring packs and have a new blade fitted where the one is broken, have both packs re-set up and new centre bolts fitted as well, however or just have the one blade done for now, you can always do the other pack sometime in the future.ToyX4 wrote:THe noise was the broken leaf spring blades.
