Hi Slowy,

The diff being mounted directly to the chassis, ie metal to metal without insulators (rubber bushes) will transfer all mechanical noise. This was amplified when I fitted the hollow roll bar. my plan is to foam fill the bar to reduce the noise.

Mine and others that i have heard that have recond. diffs, emitt a whiring/meshing noise.

I would not worry unless it is accompanied by a grinding noise.

I have seen a couple of U.S kits that use a large bush on the top mount instead of direct plate.
