2000 toyota tundra rear end noise. The rear end is. 2007 Toyota Tundra Sr5 4x4 TRD Off Road Crewmax 57L. The rear differential sounds like a small blender when I am driving under throttle.

I did a search and found numerous threads about the Toyota rear end noise but all of them were about trucks that had been lifted. And getting the frame ready for welding. Starts at about 15mph and stops at about 70 mph.

I began to try and isolate where the noise was coming from by putting the truck in neutral while rolling accelerating quickly etc. If you look on the back side of the rear hub there is a seam along the back below the axil that has started to rust pushing it inwards towards the drum. I was then told the whole rear end will need replaced.

Like any bearing when they wear out noise usually indicates failure. The caps that connect to the drive shaft have needle bearings inside them if theyre bad it will move or clunk at the cap near the rubber seal. We offer an industry leading 1-year warranty on every part type we sell.

This noise may be caused by an increased rubbing condition between the frame gusset and the upper shock mounting retainers. The inner dust shield that rides inside the groove of the rear drum was pressing inside the drum causing the noise. With the expansion with heat the problem would come and go.
