When turning left I hear (and feel a little) a kind of grinding noise from the front. Only when turning left.
It seems to come from the wheels (bearing hub ?) but I'm not sure...
When I took a look underneath I noticed the left side of the diff being all wet. The oil is leaking from the seal and the diff shaft has a lot of play...
Checked the oil level and it was still OK.
Could that be the problem ?
I'd like to repair this asap but it's my only car so I was wondering if it is possible to drive without the diff, diff shafts and the axle shaft.
I don't think the wheel hubs need a diff shaft to stay on the car
But how about the transfer case. Can it be driven without the front drive shaft?
This way I still have a car and I can wait for the parts to come in without being worried to break or wear something out inside the diff.
Thanks
