TruckTech was dead on right, replacing the upper bearing fixed the problem. I've done several now, most of the time the bearing is pulverized and comes out in many little, greasy pieces.

Tip, always press the bearing into the power unit frame, then install the drive unit. Never the other way (onto drive unit and then attempt to raise into the frame)
