Hey fella,

I've had the similar noise, And in the similar situation.
Dad told me it was the gear box and it was nearly out.
But I found out this had happened,







Pinion bearing was shot as shot could be, Front seals were shot.
Pinion had chunks out most of the cogs.
But a week or so before I pulled it out the noise started getting worse, I haven't had a drive since I've put the new centre in but im hoping the noises are alot better.

yea i seent hat in you members thread. befor i pulled the diff out and played with the lsd. i couldnt see any marks on teeth and axels were clean. pinion spun fine with no clunks or lockups
