ok what kind of noise does a rear make when its takin a dump?

mine goes "wooong" when I go around corners. It started while back and didn't do it very much. now it does it all the time and I can hear it over my exhaust which is header, straight pipe, magnaflow. I think it is making a sound like a dead bearing or wind rushing by on the interstate, I can bearly hear it over my engine. ps. don't get your wireing harness wet in anyway, your car will run like ****. pss. Beck/Arnely rubber encased metal gaskets don't seal the first time you start the car with one on it, and also they don't ever really seal.

In my own little world, lol...

Can't help you much on the bearings' replacements, either- that's one part of the car I haven't torn into yet

I think the rear bearings are something special. its not covered in my manual so I am just gonna change the rear out with another I have. I still have not totally ruled out the posibility of the exhaust hitting axels or other mounts. its of very poor quality and is going by by very soon.

Don't bother replacing the bearings. Just grab another differential.

There are a lot of bearings and seals. It's crazy work. Trust me, just replace the diff
