I have roughly 56k miles on my truck...don't use 4wd very often, but occasionally... I have noticed i have a clicking sound when turning at slow speeds...I haven't been able to climb underneath my truck yet (not even sure I would be able to tell unless something was blatantly obvious). I did a search and found some threads about steering column causing a click...it isn't my steering wheel... if it is a CV issues, are these under the power train warranty or am I SOL? Any advise appreciated!

Ok, so this is my first time posting here, and I'm really hoping to get some useful feedback as y'all are truck people like myself. I've owned my truck for the past year and a half, and only began noticing this issue after I serviced and changed all my oils (Transmission, and both diffs.) We're talking about a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500, 5.3l V8, SLT trim (if the trim matters). Here's what happens. On 2HI it runs great, no sound, smooth as silk, and transmission temp hovers at around 91 Celsius (195 Fahrenheit), and when I use to shift it to 4HI or 4LO, it rises up to MAX. 105 Celsius (around 220 Fahrenheit), and still smooth on the turning. Once I changed all my oils, suddenly there is a LOUD whining sound coming from beneath once I turn (not even sharp turns), its really sluggish, and the transmission does not take long to reach temperatures of 120-125 celcius (245-260 fahrenheit). I've already rechecked all the oils, and everything is clean and at a good level, there are no leaks, and I've used oils as per the owners manual. Any idea what I'm looking at, or what I should be checking? I do not want to blow useless money on monkeys clanking around in my truck for no reason.

I'm new to this forum, and didn't seem to find any topics describing exactly what I've got going on. If there is one, could someone just post a link? Anyways, I have a 2006 Silverado 1500 that has developed a popping almost creaking type noise when I'm turning. It's coming from the rear end. When I looked at it, the only thing I noticed was that the bed is about 1/4 inch - 1/2 inch above where it should sit. I dont drive it very often these days, but since my daily driver has been in the shop I've been using the truck and, I've noticed the noise to be consant (i.e. very easy to replicate.). The only work that has been done in the rear end since I've owned it (30K Miles) was a hub bearing replacement on the drivers side. Any ideas? Thanks
