Intermittant Whine Rear Axle

Old Rear end, new bearings, definately wear on the main pin, thinking spider gears are the culprit. Ring gear and pinion throw a nice pattern and back lash is good. Noise is not a coast or accel howl. Opinions??

Spider gears wont do anything in a straight line. Pinion depth?

Re: Intermittant Whine Rear Axle

Who replaced the bearings? Did they really know what they were doing? This is not a simple procedure like a wheel bearing.

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
