1995 Blazer S-10 rear-end noise,
 
Driving is all fine, it dont happen all the time just once in a great while, and seems to only make a noise when i turn. to me it sounds like its comming from the drivers side rear wheel. took the tire and hub off all looks fine and dry. its not a hard grinding noise or anything, but kinda like somethings loose in there..

hasnt happened for a few days now.

any ideas?

check your leaf springs and shackles could be the bushings went its a possibility

shackles are the back brackets that hold your leaf springs to your frame

there is bushings in the leaf and in the frame also there should be one in the front . If you jack the back of the truck up and try to shake the leaf see if the noise is coming from there.

Picture of a shackle is posted bellow

u have 4x4? Could be a broken torsion bar mount. they only make weird noises when turning.

yep its 4 X 4. but it hasnt done it in about 4 days, and i cant re-create the noise if i try. Ive been stopping hard and turning, turning hard, sharp, slow, everything just wont make a noise lol. But i dont think its a torsion bar, it sounds from rear end, and Pretty much like sometings really loose inside the rear wheel hub. but its all good in there...
