Default Rear end "whine".....
I've developed the notorious diff whine,higher pitch faster the speed under load,changed the fluid helped some but not much,What is the worst that can happen to the diff other than the progressive wear of the gears if i drive on it for a little while longer? Its mainly used for "street" use here and there
