Today my vitara started making a weird whining noise. last week i had massive vibrations from the rear. I have the calmini 3" lift and i found my a frame in the rear the nut holding the diff in place had come loose i titghtened it up and all was good except i has still getting some loud sounds from the rear but today while driving i got a weird whining noise it would come in intermittently at no particular speed or gear. Has anyone with the calmini lift experienced this noise?

check tail shaft angle and then look at rear wheels bearings jack car up and put on stands first and put in drive let clutch out slowly and see if the nosie is from the axle area or centre of the diff

whining sounds in my sierra is usually a wheel bearing, but its also accompanied by a vibration and a clunk on cornering...

Sometimes I get a whining sound in my car, but I just tell her to shut up.
