Hey Phil,

I realize this is not warranty but I am just looking at my options. I bought a used DTE 3.90 rear on this forum from a guy in Kansas City. He said it developed a whine at 4500 miles. Any suggestions and what are my options? I bought it as an intended backup/spare.

Thanks,
Verne

 

Phil

What exactly causes a rear to whine. I know it deals with ring and pinion alignment but, what phenomenon produces the whine?

Thanks

If it's your back-up differential, then send it this way and we'll take a look at it to see what it needs to freshen it back up for you, as I'm sure the associated costs are minimal compared to a new unit. What is the serial number stamped on the case and on aluminum DTE tag we rivet on the case itself?

It may be an old one and mileage doesn't really matter on a differential that often takes a beating it's whole life when coupled with higher power applications, because we've seen differential cores come in here with very little miles on them, but we're absolutely BEAT TO DEATH, burnt black oil, cracked parts, etc., which made the differential look as if were 100 years old!! That's why we use thermal crack detection processes now to weed out the bad cores from EVER getting used again in the field. It's very effective...

-Phil

 

The causes are endless and this post would be a mile long if I wrote everything out, but the biggest cause of pre-mature differential failures we've observed over the last 8 years is the lack of lubricant changes. Folks often think since it's "out-of-sight, it's out-of-mind" and neglect it... Most differential cores we get in here have the oil burned black from oil change neglect. Poor lil' diffy...

Here is a photo - what can you tell me about it?



Thanks for the response!

 

Very Nice, wish I had the money

 

That differential is VERY old- at least 6 years, because we began riveting our own name plate on the differentials beginning in late 2003 and serial numbering them at that time also. That unit may have even been built before we first pioneered the application of cryogenics to the gear set, that has become an industry standard that everyone follows now.

There has been A LOT of technology and improvements implemented in the blueprinting process since that unit was built 6 years ago.

Hope that helps.

Phil,

Can you PM me a price to freshen that diff up to date? Looking for recommendations & costs. I have an 03 Z that puts out 450 rwhp and see the drag strip couple times a year!

 

Bump for ya............ your the man...

 

Top of the morning guys and thanks for the orders- we're building them this week!

-Phil

 

Just put my order in, see ya on the 14th!

 

I got no response/price on your differential that needs repair. Just a friendly reminder!

 

Give us a call to discuss your options. 260-407-5455 Thanks!

Phil
