I have a 2000 safari van with a pulsating grinding noise coming from the front end of the vehicle. The noise causes a vibration in the floor on both sides inside the vehicle while driving over fifteen miles an hour and gets quicker as the vehicle pics up speed. I know this is not the brakes, they are all new with rotors, calipers, pads, and cilenders. I am thinking front end differencial. but it is a pulsating grind not a steady grind. I just bought this vehicle as a fixer. I do not know the vehicle becuase it was not running when I bought it. any Ideas what the problem could be? And how do I find the repair procedures for the differencial?

It's
actually from where the noise is coming from. Front end or rear end. From
engine area or from inside the steering or from brakes.
There
is N-number of possibilities for the car to make grinding noise or any other
kind of noise.
