I'll have to spend some time on it this week. I hope it's not coming from the gears

Or, you hope it is coming from the gears, so you can use that as an excuse to buy deeper gears!

I know this was from 2 years ago but did you ever figure out if your gears were toast? my Jeep has 212k and im changing the gear oil and its pretty glittery so im curious your outcome.

In my case it was the spider gears eating each other. Hope this helps
