2003 Silverado 1500 Sportside 4WD Z71.

During light acceleration, or anytime that the engine would be under load. . . vehicle travelling around 40 or so MPH . . ..hear a light growling kinda sound, and feel a light vibration. I think it is probably Universal joints. . . .but hate to think so since Universal Joints and Driveshaft were replaced around 35K miles and I have about 69K on it now.

    Does anyone know if the 2018 Sierra 1500 rear axle has a check valve in the vent tube to keep water from coming in? Where I live, we’ve had a lot of rain and the lake is up so I have to back in further to launch.
