1987 Corvette C4 4+3
I recently fitted my low mileage gearbox into my 172. But on the test drive I have a loud wining noise. I found that if i jack both sides of the car up it is coming form the passenger side of the differential.
If I start the engine and put it into gear and I secure the passenger drive shaft so the drivers side turns there is no noise. But if i secure the drivers side drive shaft so the passenger side turns I get this loud noise.
I know its not the drive shaft as it makes the noise with the drive shaft removed.
It just seems strange that it only does it one side and im wondering if it is a possible circlip problem.
Is it possible to get the circlip not aligned up properly or something. As surely if it was the diff bearings it would make noise if either drive shaft was turning not just this one side.
Can someone please help as after i sort this problem i have nearly finished the car.
