Hi everyone! I'm new here and the new owner of an old stove bolt. 1950 GMC 3/4 ton long bed. Anyway when I drive her down the road and hit a bump in the road sometimes I get this grinding noise coming from the way it sounds in the rear. to me it sounds like ring gear grinding on the housing. it only does it for a second or 2 then it quits. Where to start looking?

Look at the simplest first. Grease the u-joints and slip joint. Aftermarket center bearings have a grease fitting too.

I know it might sound like ring gear- but maybe check shackles- I had a bad one that sounded funny
