i have a noise coming from the rear of my lux. i think it is from the rear diff cuase if i start in a striaght line it doesnt make any noise, but if i start of turning it makes a clicking/knock noise. it has a stock LSD. just recently changed the diff oil as well.
should i be worried? as im going for a long drive to my new town in 3 weeks
lsd

naa cuase i know i'v been bogged and only one wheel spins, and im pretty certurn it is a stock lsd. its not a loud click click. just something i'v picked up on the few last days.

after driving it today im think its not my diff anymore. i reackon its my drive shaft. i did grease it weeks ago but some of the grease nipples are blocked. could it be on its way out if its making a clickin sound under load?

is there any play in the centre bearing, rear pinion?? check for play or leaks.
both easy jobs to fix
