100% stock, only thing we have ever done to it is normal regular maintenance.

We did recently(about 8 to 10000 miles) ago take the differential cover off and drain out all of the oil in there because it was making a really loud clunk every now and then, but hasn't done it since. we cleaned everything out with brake cleaner and put new seals in and made sure none of the teeth were chipped, and they were all fine.

is it possible that it has something to do with the heat? its usually around 100 or so, and i only now noticed it in the heat.
