weird noise when front diff is engaged.

my escudo has a weird noise when i lock the front diff. It sounds like the bearing but stil cannot pinpoint the cause until now. Have anyone ever faced the same prob. Is it normal?

Could be, but check the front CV axles, they are the usual suspects and are much easier/cheaper to check and replace.

hey JLX1993, it must be your rear wheel bearing. quite easy to check though, just jack up and turn your wheel.
