Strange differential chatter
Over the weekend took my bro-in-law for a spin. Goosed it once and backed it down - then made a left turn into a parking lot - I was in a lower gear (downshifting) at the time I made the turn-in and I felt/heard this wierd "shudder" that I'm guessing came from the diff. I had changed the fluid maybe a year ago - but I do track it on occasion.
Also on note - after sitting in the garage for a week or so I'll start it and put it into reverse to back out and I'll get a little "bang" out of the back - like the clutches were locked up and just broke loose.
Opinions appreciated - thanks
