FRONT HUBS CHATTER? 2H - 4A STOPS THE NOISE?

FRONT HUBS CHATTER? 2H - 4A STOPS THE NOISE?
Inside the IWE is a gear that meshes with the gear in the hub and with the gear on the outer end of the half=shaft. The inner end of the half-shaft is in the front differential. The vacuum-actuated solenoid shown in previous post is under constant vacuum from the engine when switch on dash is...- JohnA

FRONT HUBS CHATTER? 2H - 4A STOPS THE NOISE?
Just rebuilt front end susp '10 Xlt. Found left IWE had corroded inside rubber vacuum sealing ring so that when there was vacuum applied, only part of of the ring gear would disengage, leaving ring gear cocked against wheel hub. This produced the 'chattering noise' on my car that K-Clive might...- JohnA

All fluids, hoses, and pump appear OK. Bled system per ser. man. Then Sunday, the infamous 'air suspension...- JohnA

2010 5.4 ticking noise just started. Just turned 100K.
Replaced all idlers and belt last fall. Rechecked today. All seem OK. Checked alt.bearing, waterpump bearing and p/s pump. All seem OK. Noise increases w/rpm. Seems to get louder as motor warms. As near as I can tell, coming from top of engine, more toward driver's side. Anyone come across this...- JohnA
