Loaded up the quads and hit the coast.

On the way back I started getting a squealing sound which got louder and turned into a grinding sound..... Driver's side caliper decided to stick..... quick rest area pull apart and run to town for a new caliper... This is why it pays to travel with friends.

Made it home. Another issue I haven't touched on yet, as I wasn't sure if it was an issue, as a sound I started hearing in neutral. Kinda a bearing/rattling sound. It started getting louder on my trip to reno, and on this trip it turned into sounds while pulling hills as well... and downshifting. And it started shaking while taking off in 1st...........
All the same symptoms it had a year ago. Almost exactly a year ago. June 10th to be exact, is when I pulled the transmission from the truck.
So out comes the NV4500 fluid draining kit

Yup, that is metal. There should not be that much metal in a year/10k miles. After discussing this with a couple shops they are thinking I have a warped bellhousing, causing the alignment issue to eat up the end of the mainshaft. Lucky me, I've found the most cursed NV4500 on the planet.
Hopefully a new bellhousing and this will solve my problem.
