If your diff is not rubber mounted some noise on the over run is normal, or so I'm told.
Are you a Mac user or a retard?

It is rubber mounted and only happens 40-50mph.

both these companies supply both second hand and reconditioned sierra parts, including differentials.

Just get a S/H one. You will be fairly unlucky to drop on another one that is noisy, they are pretty robust things on the whole (saying that my first
diff was noisy, but never gave any hassle. Just fitted another scrappy jobbie - problem solved).
Perhap an ideal time to upgrade to LSD?
Dont just build it.....make it!

Timken bearings are the best in the business.

its a cheap diff surely, from a 2litre? almost certainly a lobro 3.62 open diff, common as muck. Buy a full car if you need, crap loads of spares and
easy to find for £50.
