Last week, I took my 2015 Ram 2500 into my mechanic to have a rear limited slip diff installed. To his surprise, most of the diff bearings, and especially the pinion bearing showed signs of severe wear despite only having 23K on the odometer. I purchased this truck used with 19K, and was told the truck had been gently used. What would have caused so much wear/damage to the bearings, especially the pinion bearing?
