Thanks guys, what diff oil would you recommend??? One mechanic I've
spoken to has suggested 75/140??? never used that before myself, but
this is the first time I've changed the fluid since putting the
truetrac's in.

Cheers
Simon

When I dropped the rear prop out there was about 1/8" of slop on the pinion,
didn't seem right to me! Also correct me if I wrong but water ingress would
cause that would?

Took all apart and replaced the all the bearings, not too difficult.... but
then I had a mate who helped. Everything is back together again it sounds
1000 times better, there is still a very slight whine (you can only just
here it if you listen for it) but this gets overtaken by tire noise when you
get above 40mph.....

couldn't afford to take it back to the shop, they said it was because of the
water damage and wanted £400 to take a look and replace the bearings plus
it's 200 miles away.

The whine is dangerous!

Just had a pro do my rear bearings and it is so quite it is scary.

What bearings did you replace? Both pinion and both carrier? Axle bearings
as well? In order to diagnose the noise I would run it with the wheels off
the ground and take my stethescope to the bearing points. You can usually
hear/feel the rumble set up by a bad bearing. You should have removed and
inspected all of the bearings when you had it apart to replace whatever it
was you did replace. Water can cause pitting in the bearings that causes
the noise, can also cause accelerated wear of the crown and pinion gears,
side gears and spiders.
