loud winning boise coming from the diff
1st is not bad. 2nd its noticeble. 3rd gets pretty loud. Then 4th and 5th are insane. Any ideas on what this noose coukd be? When i hit the gas the noise gets loud, but when im off the gas or braking its fine.
Any help would be appreciated

as banzai says. + check for oil-lvl(should be about up to the bolt you undo to fill oil).
also check your PPF for cracks. If its cracked and bends on load, the bearing towards the main shaft will wear faster.

I'd just get another diff, you can easily un-bolt yours and replace the whole pumpkin yourself. This will likely be the cheapest option due to diff rebuilds costing a pretty penny and also not being something the average person can do successfully the first time.
Where do you live? There may be someone nearby that might have one for sale.

Oh na bro I def dont have a cracked PPF. I inspected it very well last time I had it off like 2 months ago.
How much should a used one run? Is it worth spending the money on a used one or just buying a diff from banzai?
I am in Tampa FL
My diff has a constant loud noise that does not change with load, only speed. I've had different gears and a different torsen in it and replaced the bearings and its still there, I don't know why. It was never there with the stock diff until I had a shop put in different gears and bearing kit a few years ago.
You do not need to replace your LSD unit to replace the carrier and pinion bearings. The bearing & seal kit with from Mazda is a couple hundred dollars. However you need to know how to set the preload and backlash, this requires a few special tools.
500 isn't too bad of a price for 4.3 actually (IMO)
If they want 500 for a 4.1 They must be smoking something unless it is brand new.

If I can do this, anyone can. And, you can never have too many tools.

I actually spoke to the guy that has the diff for 500 and talked to him about me being local and paying cash and he came down to 415 and he is 5 min from me.
I think I am going to pick this up on Monday. I replaced the fluid in mine and it is still making noise. How much can u sell a rear diff with my issues for with the 4.30 gears in it?
Also people asked about metal shavings. There were none on the magetic drain plug when i drained the fluid. :-)

People will care more about the gears themselves then the rest of the diff. I'd pop off the back of the diff and make sure the gears are still sharply cut. If they are, you may be able to get some decent money out of them. Due to the issues, the diff is going to be worth different things to different people. But I'd post it for $500 or so noting the troubles. I think I've seen Fritz list 4.3 full pumpkins at $600 pretty regularly. It really just depends on how long you want to wait for a sale.
