I heard a nasty noise from the back of my 83 300D. Now, my hearing's not the greatest so I could be 100% off on this; the noise sounded like a grinding/scraping. It turned out to be bad axles.
Was your noise all the time or only when truning corner, going over ruff areas (dirt driveway) etc. ?

What do you mean by bad axles? Did you replace axle half shaft bearings, or the whole half shaft and bearings orrrr?
