Have you checked your service manual to make sure that is waht the specs call for? If the diff was rebuilt and it's making noise, something was done wrong.

ya the the specs call for 6-10 thousands. I set it at 8 thousands backlash the paint marks were perfect every thing was good when it was put in. no metal filing what so ever just cant figure it out. what is weird is that it only does it on the coast side and right hand turns

maybe you should have had a actual shop set it up
for you. Theres alot of things the average joe can
do but setting up a diff is something that should be
left to guys that know how to do it!
