GEN 1 I need Help please - Front grinding noise

[SVTRaptorGT500]

Hello friends! (n00b here)
I have a 2011 Raptor, am having grinding noise in the front and vibration in the gas pedal.

I have changed the wheel bearing hubs, and am about to change the actuators along with the cv axles.
Before I do this, I would like to replace seals on the front differential. I did get a replacement seal for the driver side but I don't know what the part number for the other side is, in fact the passenger side looks completely different.
I am having a hard time looking for part numbers since I really don't know what a lot of these parts are called.

If you all can help me or point me in the right direction, I need somewhere I can find part names and numbers for my truck.

TIA! (and SIA if I put this thread in the wrong location)

before you go through all the trouble, does the problem go away in 4wd?

I get a wrench light when I tried to engage the 4 wheel drive a few months back, 2 or 3 months.

I did already make some purchases, CV axles and actuators. When I installed the new hubs, everything in that area was pretty worn out. I cleaned it out as best i could.

The wrench light might be a separate issue and be the actual shift motor for the transfer case.

i had 4wd problems and found out there are 2 actuators that control the 4wd. you get both replaced?

 

[SVTRaptorGT500]

haven't replaced yet, I did purchase them. I want to also change out the vacuum hoses since they are old.

FYI - I purchased my truck used with 164k miles. I have put about 50k and she was totally not taken care of. I have been getting her up to speed.

check the hoses first. see if it goes away in 4wd

Hi,
I did change it to 4L and 4H and then back to 2, it did lessen, but i still have the issue.

I checked the hoses, they all seem like they are still good. No cracking that I can see.
