I will be sure to inspect the gears.
I wish i did have access to a lift. To be honest, im a little nervous about going back under it with it on jackstands cosidering what happened 2 weeks ago when i was going to change the fluid.
Stupidly i did it in the driveway which is on a very slight incline. i had the front of the car pointing down the incline, blocked the front tires, jacked up the car under the diff. which made the car move away from the blocks on the front wheel. I put jack stands under the frame and then it started to roll down the incline, which in turn made one of the jackstands collapse. it prob would have been ok once it hit the blocks, but now i really dont want to go under the car. I guess its a lesson learned, no matter how slight the incline dont do work on an incline.
