Bringing this one back from the dead. I've got the grinding in 1ts and 4th, symptomatic of a 1st and 4th thrust bearing? Trying to get an idea before I start loosening bolts.

Park it and fix it. It will not go away or stabilize. It will keep getting worse and leave you on the side of the road. I know this by personal experience.
