The noise seems related to the drive shaft not the wheels. The noise stop when car stop and is most noticeable at about 40mile/h speed driving on a quiet road. Thanks.
did you mark the position of the support before taking it off? it should be positioned such that the front shaft and rear shaft are in a straight line. Also how the shaft attached to the transfer case has to be marked before taking off. You have to reinstall it the way it was coming out of the factory to minimize vibration. shoot me a PM with email address and I can send you the WIS instructions.
